HONOLULU, May IL. - The
mightiest military force ever as

department commander, shortly
after midnight, and troop activity
followed almost Immediately.
From Schofeld Barracks, Fort
Shafter and Fort Armstrong, the
most modern military equipment
streamed forth in long conveys to
the defense of Oahu island.
Hickam Field, repeatedly the
Army's largest air base, sent its
great planes roaring in undisclosed
number; Wheeler Field dispatched
its swiftest pursuit ships; all out
lying islands made ready to receive
planes so there would be no large
bombable concentrations of aircraft
anywhere.
The maneuvers will incorporate
the latest twists of strategy gathered
from the war fronts of Europe and
China, including the use of para
chute troops.
Big Guns Readied.
To meet the threat of enemy
bombers and the fire of enemy war
ships. the territory's large concen-
tration of anti-aircraft weapons and
the 16-inch guns of its forts were
poised for action. Twelve and IA
inch railway rifles were available
for quick transit to wherever they
might be needed.
The islands military forces are
under three generals of which Brig.
Gen. Maxwell Murray commands
the Hawaiian division, Maj. Gen.
Fulton Gardner the separate coast
artillery brigade and Maj. Gen.
Frederick L. Martin the air force
headquarters at Hickam Field.
The outside islands-Maui, Ha-
waii, Kauai-are already prepared
to repel enemy occupation with Ma
tional Guardsmen The present
large scale maneuvers are expected
