Michael & Ken,

Thank you both.

I was just trying to determine whether she was running through that area (Not just Dassen, but a lot of low-lying islands that would be difficult to spot in fog) because she was routed that way to avoid a threat (real or perceived) or simply because her position was off.

Just an illustration of one of the many dangers these men faced, even when they weren't being hunted.

I plan to add a page to my site on American-Hawaiian during WWII soon and would like to include this information. Ken, do I have your permission, and if so, what source should I make the attribution to?

Thank you again,

Eric Stone
