one thing about japanese base housing is they give you a boatload of cabinet and closet space. I wasnt active duty, but live on Okinawa from 89 to 94 with my folks on Camp Courtney in the 10 story apartments. we had 3 bedrooms, 2 bath..and a ton of storage space in that place.
I wonder what some of the newer digs are like. That place when we moved in was already 15 years old...and this was 20 years ago..so i imagine the new stuff is even better.
hey its free

Thanks for posting this. We had the same type of Apartment (but I had to be a SRA before I could get on base too). The blue bathroom tile was hilarious!!

Oh, you had the blue tile? Yuckie. Ours was actually the beautiful mint green that the Japanese favor so much. Uglier than sin! Our new place is much better and doesn't have the aestheic mishaps that our other place did.

Wow... You're an A1C. I had to wait until I was SRA to get an apartment at Camp Foster.

It took a little bit of sweet talking but it was really all about timing. We were one of the first people to move into these brand new homes so we didn't have to compete much.

Hello. We were worried about a lot of the same stuff you are. On base housing has both Japanese and American outlets so you will be ok with your electronics and what not. Kadena just built new officer housing and SNCO housing. Camp Foster (a Marine Corps base about 5 miles away from kadena) just built new housing too which I currently live in. There's a video of that on my page too. Just don't live off base unless you can afford it!
