Okay, Dr. Wall has opened my eyes to a whole new vein of resources. As I enjoy video gaming for relaxation, I received Call of Duty: The World at War this past Christmas. One of the final levels is the battle at Shuri Castle on Okinawa. After completing the level, my curiosity was piqued. So I researched Shuri Castle. The battle at the castle during World War II left it completely destroyed for the fourth time in its long history. The Japanese government has completely restored the castle to its original dimensions and architecture. I have uploaded a photo of the restored courtyard taken by Mark Boucher in August, 2005.
