Okinawa Marines and local divers gathered for a voluntary beach cleanup and dive this past weekend at Sunabe North Steps, Okinawa, Japan. The event was hosted by Gunnery Sgt. Scott Dahn, an open-water scuba instructor, and his wife April, through the non-profit organization, Project Aware. Divers surfaced with bags filled with soda cans, plastic bottles, fishing line, toilet seats, and even a car battery. The cleanup raised awareness of the current conditions of the world's oceans while showing divers the outstanding environmental impact they can make by picking up trash that has made its way into the water.
