U.S. Marines and Japanese citizens gather to pay respects during a Battle of Okinawa Memorial Day ceremony on Hamahiga Island, Okinawa, Japan, June 23, 2025. The first memorial is dedicated to the island residents who lost their lives during the Battle, while the second memorial recognizes U.S. Marine Corps Col. Kermit Shelly, the commanding officer of 3rd Force Service Regiment from March 1967 until his death in June 1968. Shelly had a profound impact on the restoration of the local community and his most notable efforts include the construction of an elementary school, middle school, church, community hall, multiple private residences and the island’s water reservoir.
