Lt. Gen. Lawrence Nicholson, right, greets Marines attending the 2016 Okinawa Memorial services June 23 at Okinawa Peace Memorial Park, Itoman, Okinawa, Japan. The ceremony brought Okinawa residents and Status of Forces Agreement members together to honor those whose lives were lost in the Battle of Okinawa. During the ceremony, distinguished guest speakers gave speeches to honor the fallen in the Battle of Okinawa and laid wreaths at the memorial walls, on which the names of the fallen were engraved. Attendees, in turn, took a moment of silence and paid tribute to the fallen heroes. Nicholson is the III Marine Expeditionary Force commanding general and the Okinawa Area Coordinator.
