In 1979, the U.S. Marines suffered one of the biggest natural disasters on an American base ever, injuring dozens and killing 13 servicemembers at Camp Fuji in Japan. However, with all of the other world events happening at the time, it got pushed to the side in the news, and in history. There's not even Wikipedia article about it. Looking to change that is former Marine and retired WTOP journalist Chas Henry. He has written a new book to tell this story. He spoke to Federal News Network's Eric White about the book and his journey to make sure those that were lost are gone but not forgotten.
