When I was a kid my father was stationed in Okinawa as well. I can remember I was exploring with a friend and we came across an old American army helmet and a rifle. The rifle was laying against a tree. Both were very rusty. You can imagine what may have happened.

Maybe a buddy got shot and his friend lay his helmet and rifle there to assist him. Medics came and took him away on the stretcher but they forgot the rifle and helmet. It was kinda' cool to find it.
