NSGA Hanza, Okinawa - 1975 |
Images and narrative from Tom Shirley |
|
"In preparation for Expo 75, these palm trees were
imported from Guam and planted along the median of the newly-built "Okinawa Expressway." The expressway leads to the town of Nago, on the north end of the island where Expo 75 was held. This was part of a massive effort to improve Okinawa and included a general clean-up and construction of a major reservoir which helped overcome routine water rationing on Okinawa." |
