A student practices writing Japanese hiragana characters on a whiteboard during a Survival Japanese Language Class Nov. 29 on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Okinawa, Japan. The class taught students the basic principles of spoken and written Japanese. During the lesson, students practiced reading and writing the three forms of Japanese writing called hiragana, katakana and kanji. After the reading and writing practice, students practiced speaking basic everyday Japanese words and phrases. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Janessa K. Pon)
