Disaster drill in Tokyo

TOKYO, Japan - Photo from a Kyodo News helicopter shows the U.S. Navy's guided missile destroyer Lassen in Tokyo Bay heading to the U.S. Navy base in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, taking part in a disaster drill in Tokyo on Feb. 3, 2012. Seen in the background is the Tokyo Sky Tree tower.
