Unkotare does not like your postHell, want a good laugh?
Ask any member of the military that spent time on Japan. I bet most in the US have absolutely no idea that we get our own license plates, to show that we are Americans.
Now the first thing on the left side is (normally) a Japanese letter. This is not unlike any license in the rest of the world. However, the plates issued to Americans is the only one that does not have a Japanese hiragana letter there, but one in the typical Roman Script. And it is a "Y", which stands for "Yankee". Yep, used in a derogatory manner the same as "Jap" was used during the war.
So go ahead and think on that a bit. They actually use a standard Roman letter to signify on our license plates that we are "Yankees". And they still do it to this day. Meanwhile, you can drive anywhere in the US and there is absolutely no way to tell if the person who owns a car is a US citizen or not.
Yet in Japan every car driven by an American servicemember reflects that on their license plate.
