On the move

Scary and magnificent. I hope they're on the same side as me.

Great photo.

Man,those below-the-knee skirts sure make their legs appear short.

This picture gives a new meaning to 'Handbags at Dawn'.

The handbags seem so 1950s. Why not allow them to carry their SDF issued weapon?

These same comments pop up from year to year. It is a DRESS/CEREMONIAL uniform and reality is not much different from the "dress blues" of other armed forces including the US military.

"Legs" by ZZ Top playing in my head now...

The fact that they are not carrying weapons indicates to me that these are not combat troop members of the JSDF.

I'm a huge fan of everything SDF, and this is great, but they really need to lose the purses. It's way outdated.

Nice photo

Looks iron tough as North Koreans!
