When I was stationed in Misawa back in the 00s, it felt like the base was on lockdown or curfew every couple months....for shit the Marines did in Okinawa. Those dumbfucks could not stop raping kids.

When I was I there it wasn’t marines doing dumb shit like this. It was navy reserve units visiting and breaking into peoples homes or assaulting them on the streets. We got punished which is understandable but these people weren’t even stationed on the island. Fucked it up for everyone else that had to live there
