CAMP KINSER, OKINAWA, Japan – A Kinser Elementary student threads paper cranes onto a string for “senbaruzu” that will be given to elementary school students effected by Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico Nov. 6 aboard Camp Kinser, Okinawa, Japan. In a joint community outreach effort, Mrs. Ayano Shimojo and Chief Warrant Officer John Hyatt led the Kinser Elementary School students and the local and military community in the efforts to make senbazuru for the students of Antilles Elementary School in Puerto Rico. Senbazuru is a group of 1,000 origami paper cranes held together by strings, each 1,000 is made up of 25 long strands of 40 cranes. The cranes symbolized hope and healing during challenging times. Shimojo is the culture class teacher at Kinser Elementary School. (U.S Marine photo by Lance Corporal Tayler P. Schwamb)
