80 years ago on this day the skies above Menado were filled with opening parachutes as Cmdr Horiuchi Toyoaki and his Yokosuka 1st SNLF landed in two waves to capture the airfieldโthe first Japanese airborne assault in history. Here's a photo I archived from one of the men involved in the second wave

Moving to Yokosuka in around a year with family, is there a good (current) tokyo/surrounding area atlas anyone could recommend? The only thing Amazon has is from literally a decade ago or older
Probably should mention I'm still in the states

Yokosuka
Hi allโฆ.so my (31F) bf (28M, E3) unexpectedly got his orders a few days ago while heโs been home with me on holiday leave. We really werenโt expecting them for at least a month, but as we all know, you canโt plan for shit with these things.
But hereโs the real gut-punch: theyโre to Yokosuka, Japan, and heโs due to ship out on January 28th. They only gave him a month. Iโve heard lots of great things about Yokosuka but this is pretty much worst-case scenario for us, as he didnโt want to get stationed overseas, and logistically it would be impossible for me to join him that soon even if we were already married. The plan was always for me to follow him to his duty station, but this feels so difficult.
Idk, I guess Iโm spiraling a bit and could use some words of encouragement. He and I have been planning on marriage for a while now, and had already been frequently discussing eloping in the next month or so. He even asked my dad for his blessing over Christmas. Even though it wonโt change much in keeping us together at this point, we will probably go to the courthouse and tie the knot before he ships out, which is exciting but also stressful since weโll have so little time to get the details together.
Does anyone have experience trying to follow their partner overseas post-orders? Or having a super-quick elopement? Or just general advice for when you feel like the situation is on top of you? My brain is a mess, and though I know he and I will be ok in the long run, right now I just feel so worried and sad.
