I stumbled upon this while searching for old films and I thought that I would share it with everyone!

Does anyone remember 16mm film cameras?

Is there true patriotism like this anymore?

Look for the Japanese flag being dragged behind the old 40 something auto! (Sorry to any Japanese Freepers .. No disrespect intended toward you)

BTW: The color and video is amazing, considering the time and camera!

That was a Japanese Army flag, with eight rays, not the sixteen of the Naval ensign. Appropriate.

Just spent the last hour and a half watching this clip over and over and then forwarding the link to my mother and my siblings. Remarkable insight into a moment in time from my parent’s generation.

Plus, the woodies are pretty cool...

Thanks tremendously for the post.

Honolulu was one beautiful city before it got ruined with all of the high rises.
