Thanks—My father, Robert E. Curtis, USMC, served there at EWA, in the ground crew for a squadron of Marine Corps reconnaissance aircraft, 1944–1945. I'd never seen any photos of the site—until today. My father treasured many memories of his service in the Marine Corps at Parris Island and later on Oahu, and often told me how service with the USMC had changed his life vastly for the better. Dad passed away July 7, 2010. He was buried with military honors in Beulah Cemetery, Beulah Presbyterian Church, Churchill, Pennsylvania, just outside of Pittsburgh.
