The Honolulu Advertiser just ran a piece that will interest many including those interested in battlefield preservation. Ewa Field was one of the many airfields struck by the Japanese on December 7, 1941 during the raid on Pearl Harbor. Most of the fields 50 planes were destroyed on the ground and several marines died. The area is now targeted for development and a local preservationist is making a bid to save the ground.
Hats off to Jonathan Beard for this sending along this piece.
