During Joint Pacific Multinational Readiness Center 25-01, Airmen from the 735th Air Mobility Squadron supported joint maneuver and strengthened readiness across the Indo-Pacific. The exercise brought together Active Duty, Guard, and Reserve teammates from PACAF, the 15th Wing and AMC, along with U.S. Army units and multinational partners, coordinating from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam while enabling movements and training across dispersed locations in the Indo-Pacific.
From the earliest aircraft arrivals, 735th AMS Airmen were on the move by loading and unloading essential cargo, preparing multiple C-17 Globemaster IIIs for rapid employment, and enabling the flow of personnel and equipment for the 11th Airborne Division. Working shoulder to shoulder with the 204th Airlift Squadron, the 535th Airlift Squadron, and joint partners, they ensured every aircraft was ready to launch on time and fully mission capable.
As the exercise progressed, 735th AMS teams supported high-intensity mobility operations across the theater. Airmen secured and transported critical assets such as the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), which enabled rapid insertion and employment during live scenarios in Hawaii and forward locations including Palau. These movements demonstrated the 515th Air Mobility Operations Wing’s ability to accelerate joint advantage by providing the speed, clarity, and persistent air mobility support required for complex, multi-domain operations.
JPMRC 25-01 challenged participants in the very environments where they are most likely to operate, including dense jungle, unforgiving arctic conditions, and dispersed archipelagos that mirror real-world Pacific challenges. Throughout the exercise, 735th AMS Airmen showcased adaptability, discipline, and seamless coordination with the Joint Force.
This exercise reinforced a core truth: enduring relationships drive readiness, resilience, and regional access. The Total Force team at Hickam responded with purpose, delivered credible and flexible airpower, and validated the essential role of mobility Airmen in the Indo-Pacific theater.
Postured to respond. Built to accelerate joint advantage.
The 515th AMOW remains ready to deliver airpower anytime and anywhere. One team. One Air Force.
