Takaatsu Sueyoshi demonstrates Japanese writing styles, which are referred to as kana, during a Survival Japanese Language class Nov. 29, 2016 on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Okinawa, Japan. The monthly class teaches basic principles of spoken and written Japanese in order to enrich the experiences of service members while stationed on Okinawa. The students learned about the three forms of kana, which are called hiragana, katakana and kanji and practiced writing and pronouncing the characters out loud. Sueyoshi is a library technician and the instructor of the Survival Japanese Language class. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Janessa K. Pon)
