For five years, I have led & designed the Bilateral Ground Force #Wargame for III MEF & the JGSDF Ground Staff Office. So receiving this challenge coin from GEN Arai, Chief of Staff of the JGSDF, is uniquely special to me. It represents years working on the US-JPN alliance. 🎲🇯🇵 #wargaming

I'm doing #ThrowbackThursday as I continue to wrestle with my motivation. Here's the Kotobukiya JGSDF Type 07- III Tank Nacchin (Grey Ver.). A fun little model kit, articulation is limited but it has cat feet and hefty tail to help hold it up. Included decals are nice too. #Gundam #Gunpla

This is from a recent US-JPN bilateral maritime game that we supported for 7th Fleet, JMSDF, III MEF, and JGSDF.

It's a Tamiya I think, and I got it from the PX on JGSDF Camp Kengun, in Kumamoto.

A JGSDF “Snake”. The AH-1 Cobra is the original western helicopter gunship, and one of the true aviation classics.

I picked up many #Tomica #diecast cars while in Japan. I wasn't sure if I wanted to convert them or collect them. I ended up picking out cars that don't really fit the #Gaslands vibe.

Except for maybe this one, the JGSDF Heavy Wheeled Recovery Vehicle.

Gotta ensure there's no waifu gap with the JSDF.
A Japan Ground Self-Defense Force attack helicopter with a red-haired anime girl painted on the side and a banner reading "20th anniversary," I believe of the base at Kisarazu. On the wing of the helicopter sits a JGSDF female soldier wearing a red cosplay wig to look like the character. An OH-1 JGSDF helicopter with an anime SDF member named "Wakana Kisarazu" on the side; on the wing, a JGSDF soldier is dressed to match. A set of anime figurines of female JSDF members in various uniforms posing in kawaii ways. A JSDF recruiting poster using anime school girls, I suppose so you can earn their admiration by joining up.
