    Hironobu Sugawara, a member of Kesennuma City and head of the delegation for the homestay program, explains to Lt. Gen. Kenneth J. Glueck Jr., how the March 11, 2011 disaster affected Oshima Island and what Marines and sailors did to support the residents of the island, Jan. 12. During the two-day visit, nearly 30 members of the III Marine Expeditionary Force and Marine Corps Installations Pacific team visited the Sendai International Airport and Oshima Island to allow key leadership the opportunity to meet with their Japanese counterparts and to review community recovery progress since the devastating earthquake and tsunami struck the main island of Honshu. Glueck is the commanding general of III MEF.
