Members of a bereaved family pray in front of a “Cornerstone of Peace” monument wall on which the names of all those who lost their lives, both civilians and military of all nationalities in the Battle of Okinawa are engraved, at the Peace Memorial Park in Itoman, Okinawa, Japan, Tuesday, June 23, 2020. Okinawan people find it unacceptable that their land is still occupied by a heavy U.S. military presence even 75 years after World War II. They have asked the central government to do more to reduce their burden, and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's government repeatedly say it is mindful of their feelings, but the changes are slow to come.
