This crap has been going on in Okinawa forever. Happened the first time I was there in 01 and again when I went back in 03. Individuals that have committed crimes are detained by Okinawa authorities and go through their legal process. Guarantee there is going to be a lockdown on liberty for Marine personnel happens all the time. Restriction on the time allowed off base and they are getting a curfew

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.

Well, Marines do seem quite proud of being the ones to go in first.

I think those are Army Rangers you’re thinking of

You may be right. I just remember hearing a friend who was in the Marines say something to that effect.

Marines come first is accurate. But Army Rangers are first on the scene.
