Ancient pieces

Arrowheads estimated to be between 2,300 and 15,000 years old were found at Misawa in 1954 by an Air Force electronics specialist. For years, the Airman kept these artifacts in his possession, but after his death in 2017, the executor of his will arranged for them to be sent back to Japan. They were returned to the wing historian earlier this year and repatriated to Misawa City Oct. 23, 2018.(U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Xiomara M. Martinez)
