I spent many years in and out of Yokosuka, fisrt during the Vietnam War, aboard the USS Ranger CVA-61(1968-1970)'Then aboard the USS Midway CV-41(1989-1992] and last stationed ashore at Fleet Activitie's, in the capacity of Equal Opportunity Programs Specialist for Commander Naval Forces Japan, and Commander Fleet Activities Yokosuka(1992-1995). I have very found memories of Japan, and, really enjoyed the surrounding islands; did you get a chance to climb Mt Fujjii?; I did in 1992 and my legs are still stiff!
