Under the auburn glow of Honolulu streetlights, eight

description

Summary

Under the auburn glow of Honolulu streetlights, eight Marines in boots and camouflage trousers donned packs chock-full of fluids, food and 65 pounds of gear and made their way to the starting line at the 2010 Honolulu Marathon, Dec. 12. For the second year in a row, the Marines, primarily from Aircraft Rescue Firefighting, Marine Corps Air Station Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, hiked the 26.3-mile marathon to raise money for wounded Marines and sailors at Wounded Warrior Battalion West, Detachment Hawaii. "At first, people looked at us like we were crazy," said Chicago native Sgt. Fernando Camacho, a firefighter with ARFF. "But when they realized why were hiking — to help out those who couldn't because of the pain they had endured — the looks on their faces changed. That made it well worth it."

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
