friend.

TOMODACHI.

I have failed to pick up many new Japanese phrases while I was underway. This is a new word for me and one that won't be forgotten.

Tomodachi is "friend" in Japanese. Currently, we are supporting Operation Tomodachi as is much of the Navy and all the forces in this area of this world. How incredible that within only a couple generations we have gone from enemies to friends. Not just allies or neighbors, they are our friends. I am loving this country and the concept. I hope we hold onto this word and ensure that our friends successfully recover from the recent disaster.
