Uhh...yeah as usual it's been awhile and worry not you will get more videos. Perhaps I should explain as to why I have been absent. I graduated my school at the top of my class which was awesome. It resulted in me getting a choice of duty. No I'll reveal where I am in a short bit. Know that when I got to my destination I was temporarily assigned to the USS OHIO (SSGN-726). That's right folks a Nuclear Powered Guided-Missile SUBMARINE. The experience was pretty interesting and while I can't share the majority or it with you it was incredible. The professionalism and dedication those guys have is amazing. Now when my TAD (temporary assigned duty) ended we hopped off the boat in Okinawa; then we took a plane.....back to Tokyo. Yep. I'm in JAPAN!!! It's AWESOME!!!! Food is great, the place is incredible and it has Akihibara. Mecca. It is a gamer/anime paradise there. I was floored on my first visit there, not to mention the rest of Tokyo is an amazing place as well. The people are incredibly helpful and friendly. I'm doing my best to speak Japanese wherever I can and improve my skills and they appreciate that you try. The rail system is very efficient. I don't have a car but I do have a rail pass that let's me pretty much get to wherever I need. I will try to get a camcorder so I can go back into Tokyo and share it with you guys and gals. SO that's it. I'm in Japan now and loving life, and loving my time in the Navy.
