Really really hoping it wasn't caused by drunken marines.

Fire reportedly started at 0230 local time. I thought they had a curfew for service men and women stationed there now. If I recall correctly, there are Air Force, Army and Navy permanent personnel in addition to Marines.

Adjr and Mrs Adjr visited the castle the Sunday before the fire. He is stationed at Kadena and has visited many WWII sites to include Hacksaw Ridge.
