This is interesting as I knew an old gentleman, who has since passed, that
was a Pearl Harbor survivor that talked about that morning. He was
assigned
to one of the truck mounted .50 cal guns and went over the road from Ft
Shafter to Hickam Field to take up a position on the perimeter of the
field.
I had thought he had said that they were firing their guns when moving
into
position. His unit spent some time on the perimeter of Hickam Field and
then
moved on to the South Pacific.

light guns of the AA command didng get into action.
