Stars and Stripes, the daily newspaper of the United States Armed Forces, reports that the public affairs office for the Commander, Naval Forces Japan (CNFJ) will be producing a manga to explain its mission to the Japanese public. According to its spokesperson, Commander David Waterman, the goal is reach Japanese people in their twenties and thirties. “We used comics as a means to introduce a summary of [a defense white paper] that is easily understandable for young people.” The office has already produced trading cards for Japanese children.
The CNFJ is still developing the storyline, and it will contract out the artwork and production. As planned, the 40-page, all-Japanese booklet will feature a male and a female sailor on the U.S.S. George Washington aircraft carrier and their experiences both abroad in various countries and at Yokosuka Naval Base, the carrier's port in Japan.
Japan's own Ministry of Defense has created three manga booklets for its mascot Prince Pickles to explain its mission to its citizens, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has Detective Conan explaining its mission. The Maritime Self-Defense Force, Japan's nominally non-military fleet, has recruited new sailors with idol group and sentai imagery.
BIG BUCKS FOR COMICS!
The magazine-sized books feature everything from classics to romances to crime novels. The Navy produced 25,000 copies of the GW manga at a cost of $3 apiece to be handed out free and they were snapped up in hours by Japanese who waited in long lines in Yokosuka to get copies.
Japan killing prompts crackdown at U.S. Navy base
http://www.yankeesailor.us/?cat=37
The U.S. Navy said Wednesday it has imposed limits on travel and alcohol consumption for personnel at its base near Tokyo following the killing of a Japanese taxi driver.
The limits would take effect immediately, said Cmdr. David Waterman, a Navy spokesman.
No alcohol will be sold due to “a period of heightened sensitivity” over the stabbing of a 61-year-old Japanese taxi driver last month in Yokosuka, just south of Tokyo and home to the U.S. naval base, Waterman said. Off-base travel and activities will be limited, he said.
The announcement came hours after Japanese authorities questioned a U.S. sailor over his suspected role in the killing of taxi driver Masaaki Takahashi.
The sailor, a 22-year-old crew member of the Yokosuka-based ship USS Cowpens, has been in U.S. custody since he was apprehended on a desertion charge earlier this month in Tokyo.

Seriously? Someone followed a link to your site, and you're all "there's a conspiracy here"? And since when is it a problem to list your former duty stations? It's not. Apparently you have no knowledge of the military. Dude, you need to get a life.
