Last summer, the US Navy put out their own manga (kind of a Japanese comic book, but waaaay better, manga are hugely popular and read by people of all ages and walks of life), "CVN 473" and gave out free copies to the residents of Yokosuka, in an effort to put a positive spin on the impending arrival of the USS George Washington, a nuclear-powered supercarrier, at the base in Yokosuka. Understandably, there were a lot of protests by the Japanese when it was announced that the GW would be based in Yokosuka. They gave out 30,000 copies of the manga, I'd really love to have one! You can download a free copy, in both Japanese and English, at the site linked above, but I'd still love to have a copy of the real book!
