Mourning our past, celebrating the future

Staff Sgt. Joanne Griffin, U.S. Air Force Band of the Pacific vocalist, pauses for a moment of silence after pouring bourbon from the Blackened Canteen during a B-29 Memorial Ceremony, June 24, 2017, at Shizuoka City, Japan. Since 1972, Yokota Air Base Airmen have volunteered their time to take part in a US-Japan joint memorial service to pay respect to those who lost their lives on June 19, 1945, during a World War II air raid over Shizuoka.
