 I have to describe my experience in one word, probably be sporadic and flexible. Challenging. Iwakuni, I think, literally means that it's a rock city or rock village is a translation. I'd say that it's a good metaphor for us. It's a strong community. I like to tell people at the New Joint Briefs, etc., that we're a large family living on a really small little base here. As an ARF Marine, I'm MCAS Iwakuni. We're pretty much always training, always doing something to further our knowledge on the airfield, Japanese planes, our aircraft. It's anything that we need to know in case there is some type of mishap. We do a lot of training, get all of our licenses. If I was back in any other station for the Marine Corps, I wouldn't have the licenses or CVCs that I have right now. So it's very, very good for if you're trying to further yourself in the job field, whether it's in a military lifestyle, DOD or civilian. The nice thing about being in Japan is you have a lot of countries you can fly to, like the Philippines or Thailand or Australia, where they have great bombing runs and stuff like that. Or if you want to do chaff and flair or whatever you're trying to do, there's definitely an area out here for you to do it. And you definitely see a lot of stuff that you'd never see in the States, which is pretty cool. Like flying, doing aerial refueling, past Mount Fuji, which is pretty cool. Each and every individual Marine here makes a difference. So because it's a small base, when someone isn't picking up their weight, then it's felt in other areas. So I believe that here, more than anywhere else, Marines can step up and outshine and really take the reins if they want it. So for me personally, it's been a challenge because being an aviator, now being in a headquarters squadron is just kind of stepping outside of my element. So I'm interacting with, as I mentioned before, people from all different MOSs, not just in the aviation field. So especially on the headquarters and headquarters squadron side, you're providing the base support function. So I've got the postal Marines and the ones that are working at PMO. I would have had very little interaction with those people in previous bill of assignments. So I'd say overall it's been challenging but in a good way. Right now I'd say that it's a especially important place to work based on strategic nature of this base and where we're located within the PECOM AOR. And recent developments that have occurred on the base with regards to historic arrival of the F-35B, first forward deployed F-35 squadron, as well as the relocation of CMEW-5, carrier wing 5 from Hatsuki, Japan coming down here this year, ongoing for about the next 12 to 18 months as well as we onboard them. There's a lot going on on the base so there's plenty of work to be done and right now is a really opportunistic time for individuals that are willing to step up because I think it's a great time to see the results of your actions actually bear fruit.
