US military orders 2-day pause on Okinawa after Marine's arrest
Original: US military orders 2-day pause on Okinawa following Marine’s arrest for alleged murder
US military commanders have ordered a two-day pause in activities on Okinawa after a US Marine was arrested in connection with an alleged murder. The order affects American forces across the Japanese island, which hosts a major concentration of US troops. The arrest is likely to renew local frustration over crimes involving US service members and strain tensions between Washington and Tokyo.
Why now: The arrest of a US Marine for alleged murder has drawn attention to the US military presence in Okinawa and local resentment over servicemember conduct.
