Suree Kotecki, daughter of Air Force Capt. Steven Kotecki, the 35th Operations Support Squadron chief of analysis, walks toward a bus on its way to Hirosaki Ai-Sei-En Orphanage, in Hirosaki, Japan, Dec. 9, 2017. The orphanage encouraged volunteers to bring as many of their children as possible to give the children an opportunity to play with their own small-sized American counterparts.
