My grandfather worked for Pan American World Airways at Pearl Harbor. He was a 20 year retired Navy Vet when he was called back to active duty about 4 days before the attack. He manned the Pan American fire boat during the attack and later dove the wrecks during the search and salvage operations as he was one of the first Master Divers in the Navy. My mother was 10 years old during the attack and she tells me that she could see the goggles of the enemy pilots as they flew by their home in Pearl City.

I don't normally do petitions, but I am compelled to do this one.

I’m not against the idea of a photovoltaic array, but I think it should be relocated so that is visible from King Barry’s new $35 million oceanfront palace.
