Virtual Okinawa Blog

BC Street ran parallel with Gate Two Street in the Koza area, now known as Okinawa City. I offer this information in answer to a question asked earlier. Sorry, that it did not post as a comment to the appropriate blog. My error, but my heart was in the right place. I’ll get better at this in time.

I have lived on Okinawa Japan for a long time. I am now going to put my okinawa pictures online. This is a personal Okinawa Japan photo blog and cultural information resource. Enjoy the photos.

I was stationed at Kadena Air Base in Okinawa from March 1989 to March 1991.  My favorite pastime during my two years there was dancing to live country music at the crow’s nest.  I’m putting this out there to see if I can get in touch with some of my old running buddies.  I had a few Air Force friends, but most of my friends were Marines stationed there.  I’d sure like to hear from anyone out there.  Beth

Was stationed Kadena AB Jan 1982 - Apr 1988 was assigned to 44th AMU / 18AGS. Would like to hear from anyone who was there during that time. Was assigned to the William Tell Team 1986. Beautiful Island loved to Scuba Dive and sight see.  Enjoyed going to BC street on Friday & Saturday nights. Pay day was wild.   

So my brother left for Japan on Monday Aug 20th. we are having problems with his cell phone not working. I was wondering if anyone had any ideals that would help me out! this is his first time over seas and i’m sure its not his last! Thank you

I served in US ARMY June 1958 thru Nov 1959 at Sukiran.

Served with USARYIS Signal Group with duty at Headquarters

Facility.  Arrived there as a PFC and left as Corporal. Played

lot of basketball at Fieldhouse(forgot name) Loved my stay

there although I was away from my family.  Okinawa was

and still is a beautiful place, nice beaches beautiful scenery.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone that may have been

around during this period.  I retire from the Army as a CW4

and currently enjoying my benefits.(Harold Pope) 

I know I’ll get an argument, but it is time to go home and defend our own country.  I suggest we bring in Canada and Mexico and build a United States of North America and let the rest of the world fight amongst themselves.  I want a life without this continual war - war- war.

I made the post where-in I suggested that I was well known and I could find your “daughters” because a previous post was looking for a Ryukyuan sister.  I am presently helping a daughter who was looking for her father. Unfortunately this previous poster did not include her e-mail address, but I did include mine, hoping to hear from her.  So far all I only heard from a wise guy who wants to be a smart ass.  This is why the first Virtual Okinawa failed.  If we want the present VO to succeed we must get serious.  I have ben quite successful in my searches in spite of those who want to be cutesy
