Okinawa Commander Denies Island Useless in War
Lt Gen Paul Caraway, the Ryukyu Islands commander, rejects talk that Okinawa would be abandoned in any war. He asserts U S presence is for national security, while noting Japan could seek greater control under Article Three of the Japanese peace treaty. He predicts U S bases remain while tensions persist. Howard McClellan advocates a commonwealth status for Ryukyu Islands.
