SHA Road Trip Part 2 of 3

Road trip to Sagamihara Housing Area. My apology to all who speak Japanese on my very poor pronunciations of the place names. What I should have said was:

Sobudai Mae - Pronounced So boo die my
Camp Zama - Camp Zah ma (rhymes with comma or drama)
Sagamihara - Saga me har ra (say it fast)

The proper pronunciations of the bases and train stations are.

Sobudai Mae - Pronounced So boo die my

Camp Zama - Camp Zah ma (rhymes with comma or drama)

Sagamihara - Saga me har ra (say it fast)

Source: Lived there for 9 years and 1st wife was Japanese.

Thank you.  You can be my language coach if I get back. Pronunciation of foreign languages has been a struggle for me.

Do you have any more video of the Sagamihara base itself? I used to live there when my Dad was stationed there back in 1969-1974 and would love to see how it looks now.

[caldwdo]

Sorry, can't help. The Army doesn't like videos on base. Try searching other sources, some other tourist might have put something up on web.

[caldwdo]

On my next trip the language should be easier to say. Thanks for watching anyway.

[ad0nis]

man u butcher the names of the bases.

[caldwdo]

More important would the video help you and others make your way from one base to the other the first few times.

I rearended this guy at :47 going the other way. A kid had raised his hand and ran across the road in front of the car in front of me. I was headed to a HHC Softball game with Signal and wasn't paying much attention I guess. This MP that just happened to be on my team but was working that night was the one that investigated the crash with his Japanese partner. He told me not to say anything and he would take care of it. Never heard another thing about the crash. Insurance Company did not call me

It's "Chicken Farm Road" and it's located at the intersection at the beginning of vid #2 which BTW you mislabeled #3. Also, It's "Suicide Market" which was the fresh produce market on Video #2. Good job though, I enjoyed them.
