Get ready to experience Misawa's local traditions
Misawa Air Base families take photos of decorated floats as they parade through downtown Misawa City, Japan, Aug. 19, 2011. Each float was made from scratch by members of the local community. This year, Misawa residents can watch the parade run in front of American Park outside the main gate Aug. 25. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Marie Brown)
