Robert Battle:  

It's been a while since I updated my information so here it goes. I am still living in northern Japan but have thought about returning to the USA but then the killing, stealing, and being harassed by the police changed my mind to stay put. I have a few medical problems but still kicking by the grace of the Lord. I visited my daughter in Las Vegas and my son in Dallas last November. I had a wonderful time but did not have enough time to visit Nashville. I like being retired in Japan. My health insurance is only 10 percent, plus being over 70 years old has a lot of benefits being here. My wife and I just travel the country, plant my garden, and Bar B Q with family and friends. I will post some new pictures soon. I will think about coming to the reunion also. Life I am a retired U.S. Air Force Member living in Northern Japan. I have lived in Japan now for 37 years but now I plan to stay forever. I have a small business named Bikei Services that includes import/export, travel, and home care & services. I normally travel during the winter months but mostly stay home and enjoy the cold and snow from the house. I enjoy cooking and baking so I am a house dad until my wife retire and then we will travel all over this beautiful country of Japan. If you need to contact me and if you have a computer, you can call me on skype.com(bikei60) or call my Nashville phone number(615-866-1300). My Japanese business phone is (81)9023667651. Well I am still here atleast for 2 more years. My wife is planning to retire next year and we will wait a year more to see if our son will return to work here after El Paso. If no return we will try and sell our house and move somewhere in the states. The earthquake was about 400 miles south of us but we felt the big shake and was without power for a week but I was lucky because I have generators for my business so we made it ok. If any of you come this way just give me a ring and I will do my best to see you. Getting older but feel great but I am having a problem with the old knees. I have a friend that is 84 years old that get around better than me, sometimes I have to get him to come down off the house or slow down helping me. They inspire me and if I can get the knees replaced this year I will be just like him. The Japanese are the longest living people on earth and it's mostly their diet. I love japanese food and can cook it very well but I still have a hanker or some good old southern greens and I have a friend that grows them just for me. My granddaughter and her mom is here for summ...Expand for more
