The Hawai Air National Guard hosted many parties in the fighter hanger over the years. In this undated photo, members of the then 154th Supply Squadron staffed the beer booth.

In the photo from the left are: Pamela GoyaIvan MineshimaHerbert Funasaki, and Louise Sharpe. Primo was the beer of choice and the beer truck sort of appeared at the festivities.

We believe the beer truck appeared courtesy of a local liquor distributor, where a Guardmember worked.
