PFC Dalton Davis of the 5th Transportation Company, 765th Transportation (Terminal) Battalion jumped into his first Bon Odori Festival at Camp Zama on August 4, 2025, joining 17,000 visitors in a vibrant mash-up of Japanese and American cultures during Japan’s Bon season.
Newly arrived at Yokohama North Dock just three weeks prior, Davis embraced this lively tradition for the first time, immersing himself in the rhythmic dances, colorful yukatas, and booming taiko drums that define the festival.
Follow his journey as he prepares for and experiences this cultural celebration, navigating the open-post event with curiosity and enthusiasm alongside other U.S. soldiers and their families.
