Here is a video I think everyone, or mostly everyone, would enjoy seeing. A little about me: Last year I was stationed in Japan when the 9.0 earthquake happened. My ship was one of the first responders to the quake. I was apart of the search and rescue team as well as the humanitarian aid. The US Navy sent out massive support to help these amazing people. Not once was there any disorder. There was a guy who ran into the convenience store, grabbed every bottle of water and on his way to the register, turned around and put all but 2 of them back so others would be able to have some. Well anyways, I hope you enjoy.

They are certainly honorable and resilient people. I'm amazed Japan managed to rebuild and prosper so quickly after being (deservedly) decimated during WWII. Some countries/regions never recover from natural disasters.

The fact that the elder offered service to clean up and protect the young ones from having to do it and risk the danger of radiation tells you something. Those people have more clan than we do, that's for sure.

You could say the amazing people of the United States. I bet back in December of 1941 the Japs would have never imagined the generosity towards them by the grand children of the people they were trying to destroy.
