Before World War II, the Army Air Corps wanted to prove it could contribute to any war effort the United States might encounter. So future Air Force legend Curtis LeMay challenged the Navy to a military exercise to prove to it that airpower was a game changer.

The answer is FALSE.
Fake cards and flyers, claiming that the bearer is exempt from mask-wearing regulations, have appeared in Hawaii. The cards, which some people have purchased online or printed from websites, may have official-looking logos or government insignias on them. They claim that the person carrying them has a physical or mental condition covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that makes them unable to wear a face covering.
The United States Department of Justice has issued a statement about these fake mask exemptions, explaining that these cards and flyers are fraudulent. People have tried to use these cards to avoid having to wear a mask in public places that require them, such as some stores and restaurants. The cards are not issued by the U.S. government and are not backed by the ADA.

But is there any safe way to see family or friends while following physical-distancing guidelines?
