Dato sleeps in his truck at work, waiting for more orders. The war rages. Dato, along with many others, is forced to wait in long lines for food and rations. He becomes a firefighter in Honolulu and eventually begins to drive the fire trucks. The war ends.
Life returns to how it was before the war.
And, ration cards for liquor and gas become history. It was luau time again. You stand there mesmerized by a small bubble of oil that emits from the form of the great ship that lies just below the surface of the waters of Pearl Harbor. Since the day she was sunk that small bubble of oil is but one of millions that have escaped from the hulk lying there with a broken back and about 1,100 of her crew still at their various duty and battle stations. An eerie feeling of awe comes over you as you gaze down at the remains of a turret known as barbette, which is a heavily armored cylinder shape that the gun turret sits on and in and affords a base for the turret to be rotated.
