Shogun Showdown 2023

Senior Airman Noah Kohl, left, Senior Airman Marcus Thomas, center, and Staff Sgt. Matthew Banks, 33rd Helicopter Maintenance Unit weapons specialists, smile during their introduction to the audience of Shogun Showdown, a weapons load competition at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 3, 2023. Rather than loading explosive ordnance onto their aircraft, the 33rd HMU load crew competed by loading two GAU-18 machine guns to an HH-60G Pavehawk assigned to the 33rd Rescue Squadron.
