Mr. Trump landed at Yokota Air Base on the outskirts of Tokyo, where he was greeted by cheers from service members. Mr. Trump then donned a bomber jacket for a speech in which he touted American firepower and the U.S. alliance with Japan. It will pose a test for Mr. Trump’s stamina but Mr. Trump assured reporters aboard Air Force that he was up for the task.
