A long time ago in a land far away, a
gallant band of young men forged a filial bond of friendship.
They came from the heartland of America, from small towns and
great cities. The common bond which tied them together was their
mission to monitor the red menace, the scourge of communism on
nearby land bases, in the high seas, the ocean depths, and in the
air corridors above the South China sea. These were the few, the
proud, the cold warriors of the Joint Sobe Processing Center in
Okinawa. They toiled day and night in a dank, windowless concrete
fortress nestled in the midst of a towering forest of steel truss
antennas which were linked together by a spiderweb of steel
cable. Sailors, Marines, Soldiers and Airmen, they gave the
fullest measure of their youth to this sacred mission. Though
their time together may have been brief, the experiences they
shared made an indelible imprint on their young souls. Today,
more than three tumultuous decades later, the remnants of the
original group have begun to shake off the surly bonds of middle
class complacency and the dissillusionment of latter middle age
in order to capture again for a few shining moments the
cameraderie and essence of JSPC of long ago. This humble web site
is dedicated to each of those brave young men who selflessly
hurled their young lives against the common foe -- as well as the
teeming fleshpots of this far away and forgotten outpost in the
South China Sea.
The stories of a few of these brave men
are enshrined in these pages for the world to share in their
triumphs, failures and recollections of times gone by. Many of
these erstwhile cold warriors have shared vignettes of the
"glory days" at Torii Station and the
"villes" of their tawdry youth. Here you will also find
an accounting of what some of the JSPC "gang" have done
-- or left undone-- over the past three decades.
