Chief Builder Billy Knox, originally from Chapin, Ill., and Navy Misawa snow team leader, colors in the number "73" on a snow sculpture he helped create. Knox, and the Navy Misawa snow sculpture team created a snow sculpture of USS George Washington (CVN 73) for the 64th Annual Sapporo Snow Festival. The team, from Naval Air Facility Misawa, created a sculpture on behalf of the base for the city's festival on northern Japan's Hokkaido Island. This is the 30th year that the naval installation has sent a delegation of sailors to take part in the city's festival.
