I think that’s the original bridge
which we used to go on to crab

00:13.960 --> 00:15.130
then we’d get our net.

00:15.130 --> 00:22.780
We would sit down on the edge
of the bridge and get our net ready.

00:22.780 --> 00:23.940
We would use--

00:23.940 --> 00:28.800
We used to go to the old plantation store
to get old, rotten meat from the butcher

00:28.800 --> 00:34.010
and we would tie it to the end
of the string and flung it out.

00:34.010 --> 00:37.720
We could tell when the crab bit
because the string would begin pulling.

00:37.720 --> 00:41.660
That’s when we would get our net
and stoop down and get it.

00:41.660 --> 00:44.220

Also, you were telling me

00:44.220 --> 00:45.480
about Pearl Harbor.

00:45.480 --> 00:48.300
What was the significance about this area?

00:48.300 --> 00:51.830
Well, I think for these people here,
they said--

00:51.830 --> 00:54.860
We had some friends
who were living here at the time.

00:54.860 --> 00:58.040
They could see everything;
the smoke, the explosion

00:58.040 --> 01:02.500
when the Arizona blew up on December 7,
and the airplanes, they could get

01:02.500 --> 01:06.780
a good view of the airplanes
swooping down and firing

01:06.780 --> 01:10.000
with the American planes
and the Japanese planes.
