Cpl. Quindrell Fulton practices writing Japanese hiragana characters on a whiteboard during a Survival Japanese Language Class Nov. 29 on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Okinawa, Japan. The monthly class provides students with the opportunity to learn basic Japanese language principles. During the class, students learned about the three forms of Japanese writing, hiragana, katakana and kanji. After learning how to read and write the characters, the students practiced speaking commonly used Japanese words and phrases. Fulton is a warehouseman with Marine Aircraft Control Squadron 4, Marine Aircraft Control Group 18, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force and is a Columbia, South Carolina, native.
