Japan: "Okinawa and US Power"

a great read...


"The main force of the U.S. military is the Marine Corps, the so-called “front-line troops”, which occupies some 76% of all military bases in Okinawa, while the Air Force takes up about 9%.  The approximate number of U.S. personnel is 16,000 in the Marine Corps, 7,000 in the Air Force, 4,000 in the Navy and Army combined, and about 23,000 civilian employees and dependents."
