Masahito Hayashi, center, stands before an altar to pray and receive a blessing from Shinto priest Nobuhiko Tsuji, right, at the conclusion of a groundbreaking ceremony on Camp Foster Jan. 15, 2015. The ceremony, called “jichinsai,” was a blessing to ask permission from the earth spirit to build new structures. It also asked for the safety of workers as they demolish 45 housing units and construct a new building to replace Zukeran Elementary School on Camp Foster. Hayashi is the managing officer for the Kyushu branch of the Obayashi Corporation, the contractor for the construction. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Matthew Callahan/Released)
