Japan Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) Reserve candidate

Japan Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) Reserve candidate Shoko Ikenaga asks Army Col. Timothy M. Snyder, director, Army Reserve Engagement Team-Japan, about the Army's key priorities in the Pacific during a Sept. 8, 2015, luncheon at Camp Zama, Japan. Ikenaga was among seven candidates from the JGSDF Reserve Component pursuing a career in the JGSDF’s coveted language interpretation field. The candidates visited Camp Zama to practice their English skills and learn more about the Army Reserve's role in supporting U.S. Army Japan's mission and enhancing its bilateral engagement capabilities.
