A Higashi preschool student wears a birthday cap while peers and volunteers with Marine Memorial Chapel sing “Happy Birthday” during a community relations event at Iwakuni City, Japan, Jan. 11, 2018. Service members and chapel staff read books, danced and played games with students, such as “head, shoulders, knees and toes”, tug-of-war and dodgeball. Volunteers with the chapel visit local schools four times a month to give back to the community, build trust and foster positive interactions between service members and the local Japanese community.
