A Soldier from the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force

description

Summary

A Soldier from the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force taps the other in front on his shoulder to signal the next movement while navigating through an urban village during Rising Thunder 19 at Yakima Training Center, Yakima, Washington, Sept. 5.

Silent communication such as this along with other gestures have been used quite frequently to signal various tactical movements through the Rising Thunder 19 exercise.

Rising Thunder 2019 is an annual exercise between the U.S. Army and the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) and is part of Pacific Pathways 19-3. RT19 is a USARPAC-sponsored capstone event. U.S. Army Units participating include the 7th Infantry Division and the Illinois Army National Guard's 108th Sustainment Brigade and 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team. The exercise consists of company/platoon unilateral and bilateral training events in two phases, culminating with a bilateral live-fire exercise. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
