I was at WKE and LLL about one year each at WKE. I was Chief clerk in the Guard Office.  Capt R.J. Bradley  was Guard Officer. In 1976  I was back to the island and wanted to tour the base but was denied access.  Anyone there at that time, especially if you remember me, let me hear from you.

I was at Waikele 1959-1961, The only memorable occasion I can remember was that in 1959 they made Hawaii a state, some celebration. Always looked forward to the field day contest we used to have with the other ammo detachments.   Went back for a vacation in 92 and it was all gone. The cane fields where gone and nothing but housing could be seen.   The bases were closed down with civilian rent a cops patrolling the deserted buildings. Sad, I have some found memories of that place. I remember being on duty in the ADT block house and connecting all the guard stations up to outside lines so they could talk to there girl-friends off the base. Sure glad times were different then.   I have a few pictures of the base and a couple of 8mm video tapes I took ( I have a roll of 8mm film of the guard practicing for a competition and dressing up in foreign drill team uniforms performing close order drill) This is real neat.   Well, If anyone was there during my tour, drop me a email.
