Tanaka finished his call with his mother politely finishing it as she was continuing to ramble on and gently placed the phone on its receiver. He slid his newly issued tan plate carrier over his JGSDF flecktarn fatigues, and adjusting it to be a comfortable and snug fit. Grabbing his duffle bag loaded down with what few possessions he had, and grabbed his folded up order and stuffed them into his pocket he left the temporary quarters he had since he arrived from Atlantis. He arrived at the staging area and joined the group preparing to be beamed aboard and saw a Japanese women with a lot of baggage along among many others in the group.

Sound of being beam aboard the nyx could be heard and he subconsciously began holding his breath because he hated it, because he has jumped from planes and helicopters, rappelled from hovering helicopters, there was always an impact on landing with beaming aboard ships there was no impact. On arrival he realized he was holding his breath and released it in a long sigh, movement around him brought him back to reality. He slung his duffel pack onto his shoulder and began moving; He arrived finally at his quarters and laid his duffel bag out across his bunk.

Tanaka didn't mind the size of the room he has had smaller quarters and began organizing his belongings and placed his plate carrier, spare uniform, and boots within the locker. He left his quarters and began a walk through to learn the interior of the ship in case he needed seeing end her or an emergency. Seeing a handful of marines also doing the same as him, He introduced himself and joined the small band as they began their recon of their new home.
