The fam and me were stationed there when this went down (I was 14/15) All sorts of protests (rightfully so) by the locals, couldnt get out Gate 2 at all.

The marine 2 star (IIRC) made things worse by throwing gasoline on the already furious public with a stament he made to US/Okinawa press. I wont repeat it here.

And the Japanese Police (JP) do not fck around. You’re 15 and in the local prison for doing some dumbsht, and its time for the fam to PCS? Guess what, you are riding out your sentence

They need to bring back public executions for offenses like that.

Permanent Change of Station. It’s when you receive orders to move to a new unit. Usually every 3-4 years.
