Kadena Air Base

It's pretty much run by military.

Kadena, which is in Okinawa, is the second biggest Air Force base in the world.

Initially, it was beautiful.

It was amazing.

Here's the real world versus the not real world.

So, I'm doing a fighter drag at a Kadena Air Base in Japan.

And it was snowing.

I think it was Kadena.

Planned annual procurement rises to 36 jets a year in both FY 2030 and 2031.

In other F-15 news, the first Kadena-designated F-15EX left Boeing on August 28 for additional preparation at Portland before moving to Japan.

Combat-coded aircraft are expected to begin arriving at Kadena in FY27.

The fiscal 27 F-35 selected acquisition report exposes some new cost information.

The United States rejected the request.

But it did acknowledge to the Japanese central government that PFAS contamination in the prefecture likely came from the Kadena Air Base and the Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, the sources said.

However, the Japanese government failed to include that acknowledgement when it released the US response to the public, the sources said.

Asked about Japan's exchanges with the US side concerning PFAS in Okinawa Prefecture, Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara declined to discuss details at his September eighth news conference.

And I fought him in Okinawa.

I want to say Kadena Air Force Base in Kakidamishi, uh, fight night by Eddie Arazo.

Um, And Okinawa, you know.

So, yeah, man.

Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 251 from Cherry Point.

E3 Century AWACS, 961st Airborne Air Control Squadron from Kadena, and F-22 Raptors assigned to the third wing from Alaska.

Nice.

Pretty cool.

Brian had spent the whole night with us in our room, sound asleep.

So who the hell did Jack hear crying in Brian's bedroom? [typing] This next story is a little shorter, but it stuck out to me because it takes place on Kadena Air Base.

You know, Air Force, golf course, Applebee's, all the amenities the Marine Corps bases never seem to have.

For as many dark stories as I've heard about Kadena so far, it feels like some supernatural balancing act.

The nicer the base, the more it has to be creepy at night.

I had the pleasure of meeting another Marine this past weekend, actually.

So I don't know.

Maybe they might be the same buildings from sixty years ago.
