This has become a tradition, and the brigade is based in Hokkaido, where the snow festival is held. [Photo: military_2ch] In case you’re wondering why the military is roped in for this task, perhaps this image will clue you in: [Photo: FBi_JP] Look at all that fucking snow. Seven hundred
5-ton-trucks’ worth of snow were needed for this Star Wars sculpture alone. That’s the most snow ever used for any one sculpture at this festival.
The military pp slot also cut the snow into blocks and put them into place. The brigade’s mission is to complete these works accurately, successfully, and without causing injury.
