[edit] Confederate flag
The following content was moved from the article page; it's really interesting, but IMHO not relevant to the castle's overall history/identity.
After the Battle of Okinawa a Confederate flag was raised over Shuri Castle by an American soldier from the self-styled "Rebel Company" (Company A of the 5th Marine Regiment). It was visible for miles and quickly taken down and replaced with the Stars and Stripes.[1]
