Volunteers from Commander, Fleet Activities Yokosuka (CFAY) and tenant commands teamed up to celebrate and be a part of Yokosuka City’s 43rd annual Mikoshi Parade and Festival, Oct. 20. According to Japan-guide.com, each local area in Japan has a shrine (Shinto deity) which is carried through the town or city in a Mikoshi (portable shrine) accompanied by Dashi (floats), and this year’s Yokosuka City parade included a combination of 57 shrines and floats from the surrounding communities including CFAY and Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). CFAY provides, maintains, and operates base facilities and services in support of the U.S. 7th Fleet's forward-deployed naval forces, 71 tenant commands, and more than 27,000 military and civilian personnel and their families.
