Pearl Harbor out May 25th

Just got the movie poster in the Sunday paper. It looks pretty good, but Zeros flying over a baseball park doesn't seem to real. Last I checked they flew at 8k or higher.

Heh, big Hollywood production with big stars in it.  If you're going to go see it and be disappointed if it ain't realistic, I'd say don't see it    But hey, there'll be air-e-o-planes & explosions & guns & bombs, so it can't be all bad.

One of the first waves hit Kaneohe on the Windward side of Oahu, then came over the Windward mountain range towards Honolulu and Pearl Harbor. There is still wreckage of some of these planes in the mountains as some weren't high enough to make it over them, and they are usually socked in with clouds. They're not 8k...maybe 5 at the most.

OTW!  

The wife said she wanted to vacation in Hawaii this year. Now I have a reason to go along with her.
