Davis, her new husband, to his Air Force duty station in Okinawa, she burned up the lines with multiple calls, and letters to the Pentagon to secure the necessary permit to allow her to travel (at her own expense) to be with him. Successful, she then found an apartment to rent, and got a job as the secretary to the 313th Air Division, (Okinawa) Director of Personnel.
Their time there, and on leave in Japan, were among her fondest memories.
