This 1950s photograph show old military hutments at the base of Koko Head. Back in the 1950s, it was the home of the 109th Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron. The radar was at the top of the crater and personnel and equipment were ferried up and the down on a cable car. (More on the cable car in a future post.) The 109 AC&WS left around 1958.

Some older retirees say the hutments were later used by the Hawaii Army National Guard, but that is unconfirmed.
