Hi,
I am in need of some help. I just started to fence again after about a
7 year hiatus when my boss (ol Uncle Sam) decided to send me on a tropical
vacation to Okinawa Japan for half a year. When I was here in 1999, the
Kadena Air Force base had a Fencing club tha is now non existant and the
'out in town' Okinawan Fencing club is no longer answering the phone (the
building is occupied by an actor college whose students didn't speak much
English and I speak even less Japanese). I guess the point is I want to
Fence while I'm here and there doesn't seem to be anywhere to fence. I was
wondering if anyone knew of a contact for fencing in Okinawa. Thanks in
advance for any help.

I am afraid I cannot help you, but thought I would inspire you a bit, by noting
that the USMC sent Burt Freeman to Okinawa for a year, back in the seventies,
where I doubt he fenced very much, but he was nevertheless able to come home
directly from there to win the U.S. national championship in men's foil, around
1972 or so.
