Lance Cpl. Cody Mendes describes the components of a M4A1 service carbine to an Okinawa resident during the 9th annual Schwab Fest on Camp Schwab, Okinawa, Japan, May 23. Schwab Fest is held every year to reinforce the relationship between service members and Okinawa residents. “This event helps us demystify ideas of what happens on a (military installation) and reminds community members that beyond being Marines, we are people,” said Col. David L. Odom, the commander of Headquarters Command, 4th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
