RE: 1909 Japanese 10 Sen Coin

Where were you stationed when you were here? These days there is a lot of English everywhere. Frankly, I kind of get annoyed, because it makes the lazy part of my brain want to just read the English and ignore all Japanese, and I don't want that. heh but that's a small problem that only a language learner has. For everyone else, it's getting pretty convenient. My city also has Portuguese everywhere because of all the Brazilians here so many sighs have three languages.

I was in Okinawa.

I've never been down there so I can't compare how things are. There is a marine base fairly close to me, over in Shizuoka. I see the military helicopters flying back and forth everyday.

Looking at some maps, it looks like that prefecture is where Camp Fuji is. I have never been there, but have been to MCAS Iwakuni in the Yamaguchi Prefecture a couple of times.
