One of these days I'm gonna have to get back to Yokosuka. Out of all the places I was stationed at in the Navy, Yokosuka was my favorite. I just wish I had learned more Japanese than I did.
I miss yokosuka, i lived in japan for 14 years! I always ride a bicycle going to the base because we lived off base, i wish my husband next station is yokosuka again 🥰❤
how do you live missing it so much. I was there for 3 years and I dream about it everyday and it kills me that i’m not there. I feel i left my soul in japan
I love Japan so much!! I used to live on base because we were stationed there and these bring back memories! I remember walking out of base and going to many places! It was beautiful and there was so much to do! I really recommend you go there if you can!
Thank you so much for watching so many times! I think I should go back and make an update for this video one of these days! Maybe you can direct me where I should walk! 😄
Very nice tour. I was stationed on the USS Knox FF-1052 at Yoko from 1977 to 1979, loved it. In my off time I drove a on base NEX Taxi for entertainment when the bars got old. Retired in 1995 and worked for SONY in San Diego making picture tubes for 4 years. Then the Philly Service Center fixing PlayStation 2's for 4 years. Loved the Japanese work ethic.
😳 wow to see how much Yokosuka has changed, i was stationed there 1980 to 83, i almost didn't recognize the main gate with the build right there next to it. It has always been on my bucket list to return...i left the one true love of my life behind when i got transferred. There was a night club as you went out the gate crossed over( no bridges then 🤦) and turned right.. several blocks down. Thank you, I've always wondered how it looks now.👍
Oh man, thank you for the great memories. I had the pleasure to be stationed and lived in Yokosuka for almost 8 years, most definitely my favorite place I lived. I need to go back to visit, hopefully soon, my son is now stationed over there!!!
I lived there from 1985 to 1989. Motley Crue 1987 at Budokan was my first concert! We lived off base for 2 years in Hayama near Zushi! I loved everything about Japan, the ramen, cute girls and clean and exciting cities! Yokohama Station used to be my fav place to hang out by Sogo Dept store! Cool video!
I would absolutely love to go back to Yokosuka!! I lived there for four years and enjoyed every single day. I lived off base and had some wonderful Japanese neighbors. Our neighbor was really into karaoke & invited me to join him and his wife. I agreed and had a wonderful time singing with him. Wish I could go back there someday.
Occasionally watch this video to remember walking off base with friends after school. I lived off base so I was still able to walk around here at times and didn't have to get locked in the base. Brings back memories and I'm really missing this.
Thank you Soo much this brings back some good memories my father was stationed in Yokosuka for almost a decade me and my sister graduated from Kinnick High school definitely brought a smile to my face I would like to visit my old stomping ground with the family...thank you
Brings back memories! I was stationed on the USS Midway CV-41 back in 82-85. My favorite place on earth! BTW, this was a stunning video! Never seen another tour video so pristine.
I was a military brat and went to Yohi from 1957~1968 1st grade thru senior, graduated. In that interval I believe Midway was there and USS Enterprise. Forget what came next.
Yoshinoya beef bowl and the sushi go round is gone from mikasa 😞I miss Japan so much. Stationed there for 4 years and it changed my life. Thanks for making this video my friend.
A friend found this and sent it to me. I love this! This brought back so many memories of my time there. Yes I've seen other videos of the Yokosuka area, and the U.S. Navy base, but I really needed to see this today! I flew from Bermuda to Japan and fell in love! Hopefully I will be able to return, soon! I should add that a lot has changed since I was there in the early 90s, but there are some business and buildings that are still there that I recognize.
I’m about to move here in 2 weeks! Not my first time in Japan but it’ll be my first time in the Yokosuka area! Usually I’m around the Tokyo/Ikebukuro area when I used to visit. Thank you for this!
This is also the setting of a famous videogame from 1999 (Shenmue). It has some very hardcore fans who always like to see Dobuita street in real life and nostalgicly remember the game. As I'm one of them I love this video :-)
Even Though I Were Station Here In The Late 80's At Times I Miss Yoko...Clean,Efficient And Most Of All *Safe!* Would've Loved It *More* If I Could've *Lived* There As An Civilian......
giving me flashbacks off my childhood i used to go to the arcades inside Moars whitch is built within the chuo station, lot of shopping at the blue tile street and the Mikasa way, i got to go back to Japan
Doboita Street have a lot of changes now..so happy to see this video brings back memories.I missed being there and wish I could see my Japanese friends again.
I’m currently stationed in Yokosuka and have been in japan for 11 years the quality is amazing! And you have the most recent update on the honch, a lot of buildings have either been torn down or changed.
It's a shame that a lot of business went down in Honch. I have a feeling it's all because of COVID-19 isn't it? I saw a video shot a long time ago and Honch looked much more lively. Sad...
You is traveling to all my favorite spots. It would be nice if you can find older pictures or videos from the 1980's when I was there. If started looking into my old photo albums over the weekend. Then this video popped up.
I miss Japan. So many areas you can go to just chill, get away from noise. especially at night. Man. Absolutely going to get a Visa/ Permanent Residence some day.
Arigato Gozaimas! Yokosuka, Atsugi, and Sasebo alumni! 11yrs total, always come back to visit but with covid everything went to a halt. hopefully, soon.
My sister used to live on the Air Force Base in Misawa. Thank you for your videos. The clarity & sharpness of the picture & scenes are supurb👌🏾👍🏾👍🏽. Love you videos anyway. Alohaaaa🍎🍏. SUGGESTION: Do one of Misawa or anywhere around there???? Maybe?
Jeez, from reading the comments, everyone that went there were boot camp sailors. Honcho St was lined with bars and girls in 64. I was on a Desron 3 DD home ported, 64-66, and took my out of country R&R from Vietnam in 67 and went back. Good times! Way to sanitary for me now. Exchange rate was 360 Yen=$1, MPC.
iPhone doesn't seem to have a specific setting to cope with the flicker. But from my experience, it detect the flicker frequency and automatically adjust to it.But the problem is that it's a little slow. And you need to have the flickering object pretty big in the frame for iPhone to detect it correctly.
Note that the rail lines that go near Yokosuka are located in the steep hills west of the naval base. In fact, during the Pacific War (World War II), the Imperial Japanese Nay's Yokosuka Arsenal built a number of underground factories into the steep hills to protect them from bombing attack.
I was stationed on the USS Knox FF-1052 77-79. One Saturday in 1978 when they were building the new Navy Exchange they pulled a 500 pound live bomb out of the ground like a carrot. It was from WW2 dropped on the Dry Dock but went long and went into the soft mud at the time until it was recovered by EOD. I was driving a NEX on base Taxi that day and heard all the Sirens. Loved YOKO. Thanks for the Video. Worked for SONY in 95 after retirement for 8 years making Picture Tubes and fixing PlayStation 2's. Loved JAPAN. .
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I really needed this at the moment. Yokosuka & Japan will always hold a special place in heart - I absolutely miss living there. I hope to someday move back to Japan. Your walking tours are amazing, and I really appreciate the high quality/resolution! 🇺🇸💕🇯🇵
This is a very good video I'm Japanese, but Yokosuka is a city that I want to visit on a regular basis. It's a good city where you can experience American culture. This comment uses Google Translate. 🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵
👍 a different side of Naval area and community areas to. The submarine wasn’t big enough to step into but the person who made it can make them for people’s swimming pools who don’t use them anymore or make them a size enough for people entertainment rooms? Glad to see what the park is like to including the WW1/2 era battleship to. The other Naval ship’s are protecting 🇯🇵 waters. 👍 ⚓️🇯🇵🇺🇸📸
I didn't see Most Burgers, Shakey Pizza,Hoppie House nor the Blue Jazz bar. Those were great times for me. I love Japan. Sad to say, I lost All my Japanese friends. My wife destroyed the relationship with my last friend. I whom I meant will I was 18 years old, I'm now 55 years old.
I also wonder does they still allow people to do streets performance in Harajuku at the park near the train station. And I love to see a video on clubs near Roppongi train station.
Since my channel shows walking videos, would you like to be in my video as one of the pedestrians ? Actually a few of my friends were in my videos in the past as pedestrians too.😄 But I have a better idea! Since you have your RU-vid channel so if you can show your favorite spots in Yokosuka from a real Navy guy's point of view and upload it to RU-vid, I can show the link in my video. That way you can generate your own audience! 😄
I shot a nighttime video a year ago but the streets were quiet back then too. It's ll because of the COVID-19. I hope it will be over soon so I can film American sailors at their finest as you say. Thank you so much for watching! 😄
