military training on the Big Island

[TomK]

"...using bugle calls..."

"Move along folks, nothing to see, hear"

It sounds silly and I appreciate the pun, but when you think about it, the idea of using something that doesn't rely on electronics to alert the armed forces in Hawaii of an attack on the islands is quite sensible. A bugle call would certainly be quicker than someone running around the barracks trying to wake everyone up.
