I'm in KS and on the map. MCAS KB is part of what they call MCBH there at Kaneohe Bay on the northeast/windward side of the Oahu. Catches the trade winds across the Pacific. Mainly an airgroup located there with an infantry regiment, all part of the 3rd Marine Division with the rest spread out in Okinawa and Japan.
Nice place called by most as K Bay. The pier there next to the airfield is where some movies were filmed such as the scene in Mr. Roberts where the guy drives a motorcycle of the end coming back from liberty. Out in the bay just off the south end of the runway is what is now called Bird Island where they filmed exterior scenes for Gilligan's Island. The university studies birds their now. Good fishing on the shallow flats half way to the island. Gilligan could have swam a little across the channel and walked to land. I fished off the pier but they recommend not keeping them because of the old oil contamination around it.

My beef is with the whole privatized system where the military should be getting discounts instead of charged higher when on base. There are plenty of auto repair shops off base but hard to get to during duty hours or weekends.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
