To my readers,This photo is of Mabel Thomas working the switchboards while she's in full gas mask regalia. Like Mabel, sometime it's cumbersome for me to multi-task, so I'm simplifying my life.
Blogs change. Since I have begun this blog, I have taken on other writing obligations, so, I'm going to consolidate some of them. What that means for this blog, is that I will be posting weekly (not two or three times a week as I do now) and the blogs will be longer. There also may be a repetition of information that I have posted before so I can get all the columns in line with each other.
Thanks for understanding.
Aloha,
Dee

Dee - I just wanted to say that I stumbled upon your blog and have really appreciated your work. A friend of mine and I are thinking about various ways to use the web to ferret out some hidden corners of Hawaii history, so thanks for breaking some trail here.
I'm wondering if you have a source for the image you used of the camouflage on Aloha tower. I know it was a commonly used image and I suspect that it's available at the UH WRD or HSB. I'm working on a book project (I'm an academic so I don't have the freedom NOT to publish....) on race and tourism in Hawaii and I'd like to use that image, but I can't if I don't have a reference. Any help would be appreciated. If you want to email me, you can do so at lpierce3@depaul.edu.
Mahalo!
