According to American television station KIRO, 200,000 U.S. personnel are currently being evacuated from Japan to cites along the U.S. West Coast. The Seattle, Washington, based broadcaster states on its website:
The USO said about 200,000 U.S. personnel are being evacuated from Japan to U.S. West Coast cities including San Diego, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Seattle/JBLM.
The voluntary evacuation is in response to growing concerns over the ongoing Fukushima nuclear power plant catastrophe.
As we recently reported, barring a nuclear detonation at the site, the Fukushima disaster should have little direct impact on the United States mainland.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
The number is actually about 9,000. There are nowhere near 200,000 US troops in Japan.
