Corey L. Carter, left, and Cpl. Brandon G. Taylor give new backpacks to young girls Feb. 4 at “Uruhashi,” the Single Mother Association Center in Uruma City, Okinawa. Taylor and Carter worked various side jobs to raise money for the bags, which are required in Japanese elementary schools. Called “randoseru” in Japanese, the backpacks have been the standard for elementary schoolchildren since the 1960s; they are made of fine leather and can range from $150 to $800. Taylor is an Aiken, South Carolina, native and a special intelligence system administrator assigned to III Marine Expeditionary Force Headquarters Group. Carter is a Chicago, Illinois, native and the Single Marine Program camp coordinator for Camp Courtney. (Marine Corps Photo by Cpl. Joey S. Holeman Jr./ Released)
