American and Okinawan visitors get a glimpse of a KC-135 Stratotanker during AmericaFest, an open house event held July 4 and 5. AmericaFest featured two dozen aircraft static displays, live entertainment, activities for children and a nightly fireworks show. The two-day event, which was designed to strengthen relations with the base’s Okinawan neighbors, drew nearly 66,000 people. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Rey Ramon)
