U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Todd Dozier, 5th Air Force vice commander; Royal Australian Air Force Air Commodore (O-7) Martin Smith, Combat Support Group temporary commander; and Koku Jieitai (Japan Air Self-Defense Force) Lt. Gen. Shinichi Kaneko, Air Support Command commander, read an inscription on a World War II memorial dedicated to the 505th Bombardment Group at Tinian, U.S. Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands, Feb. 19, 2020. For the first time, three general officers representing the U.S., RAAF and JASDF visited Saipan, Tinian and Rota together. The monument is dedicated to “those young Americans of the 505th who survived the war and those who gave their lives here in pursuit of victory. Believing deeply in the value of living as free people in a democratic society, they fulfilled with honor and pride their duty to their country, supporting the cause of freedom throughout the world.” (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
