ISHINOMAKI, Japan - A boat of the Maritime Self-Defense Force and a helicopter take part in an intensive search mission to find missing people in the Nagatsuraura cove in Ishinomaki, Iwate Prefecture, on April 1, 2011. The Self-Defense Forces and the U.S. military launched the three-day operation in areas devastated by the March 11 quake and tsunami in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures, three weeks after the disaster wiped out coastal cities and towns in northeast Japan.
