This event is free and open to the public, but reservations are appreciated at this address: form.jotform.com/240800479321047.
The purpose of JUMP is to honor U.S. military members and their families that served in Japan and promote the strong bond between the U.S. and Japan that helps to maintain regional peace and stability. At any given time, more than 50,000 members of the U.S. military are stationed in Japan, and the total number of those affiliated with the U.S. military bases in Japan reaches nearly 100,000 every year. Northwest Florida is a proud military community with many that have served overseas in Japan. JUMP provides an opportunity for military members, friends, supporters and those interested in learning about the U.S. military in Japan to connect in a social setting.
This event is made possible by the Consulate-General of Japan in Miami.
