Futenma Air Station in Okinawa Pref.

GINOWAN, Japan - Photo taken on Jan. 22, 2011, shows the U.S. Marine Corps' Futenma Air Station in Ginowan, Okinawa Prefecture. The Japanese and U.S. governments plan to relocate it to a less populated coastal area within the prefecture as part of a road map for the realignment of U.S. forces in Japan agreed upon in 2006, but the local people want it moved out of the prefecture.
