Subject: Huge and Important Update Some of you might realize I have been on the quest to find close up and detailed images of the Honolulu Harbor Light Station. Why a lighthouse you ask. Well, seems our submarines sailed in and out of Honolulu Harbor daily for a number years before moving to Pearl Harbor with the aid of this light. And, it was always mysteriously in the background of many of the photos. Now, no longer! Many other Navy ships also sail safely due to that light. It was ultimately replaced by the Aloha Tower and even then its lantern was transferred to that tower so it was still keeping our ships safe. Well, enough. Thanks to the kindness of the folks at the US Lighthouse Society, the people who laid hands of the lines drawings for me, they have found the photos I have been seeking for about 5 years now. http://www.uslhs.org The story isn't done but is close to it.
