japan's women in general are extremely beautiful. okinawa is definitely no exception.

yeah i hear even today they still face racism from the main land and are very proud of their heritage.

Yeah I guess our rescue work didnt mater at all.
At the time the nazis just wanted our iron, and we didnt have any weapons in sweden at the time so its not like we could fight them even if we wanted to.

Japanese soldiers killed lots of Okinawans because of their racism. Okinawans were scared of Japanese more than Americans. It was one of the darkest points of Japanese history. I feel sad and ashamed of it.

Thank you for showing these tunnels, Scott. It reminded me a lot of "Letters from Iwo Jima". I really felt the weight of history when you were walking through there.

"wasn't around during WWII"? wouldn't have mattered you swedes anyway, you all hid under the bed back then... left scandinavia for the fins to defend. meh!

Good stuff, Scott. I never liked history in school, but I always enjoy visiting places that have a lot of history. Its a weird feeling standing in the same spot that something so major in history happened.

I spent 3 weeks there last July with my Kanojo. Felt like we got to see most of the island in that time. But we missed the caves. Thanks for the upload. Interesting I couldn't take video of some parts in Shuri castle. Don't forget to Get some action of Habu sake and Okinawa sweets if you haven't already.

Hey Scott is it true there are lots of beautiful women in Okinawa? Lots of actress's and models come from there, so it must be something in the water holla!

yea i guess in recent times okinawans have been trying to get the us military bases off the island? im not sure whats up with that now. but i can see why, they take up a good chunk of the good lands.

Great video. Really like the history.

How does contemporary Japan relate to its past? (particularly WWII past), and the mentality of many who lived within that generation, civilian and military?
