I was there in Yokosuka on and off for 2-1/2 years. Most the time we were in Vietnam in the 60's as the War was happening. But when we did come back for Ship repairs I loved it there. I had no problem as most everywhere we went people spoke English. I am surprised that you say in this day and age that you had problems with people not speaking English.

Darius it depends on the duty station your stationed at. Some ships go out onto deployment for a longer period of time and some ships stay in their homeport for their maintenance cycle. Really depends on the ships mission. Just be prepared to go out on deployment for 6-10 months. Its not straight 4 years you get breaks in between for the ship to get worked on for the next deployment cycle.
