However, Macarthur’s determination was more than a Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday matter of pride. Over 500 American soldiers were being hours of operation held in Cabanatuan, a notoriously brutal prisoner of war camp in the Philippines operated by the Japanese army, and MacArthur wanted to see to it that they made it home.

With the help of Capt. Prince KWAJALEIN Merchandising (James Franco), Mucci leads his men on a life-or-death Community Activities Bakery: 6 a.m. - noon, Tuesday ARC: 10 a.m. - 11 p.m., Tuesday Beauty/Barber: closed, Monday and open raid against forces known for their savagery Beaches Laundry: closed Emon: 11 a.m. - 6 p.m., Tuesday Macy’s and Macy’s West: 10 a.m. - 2 p.m., All other beaches: buddy system at all times Tuesday Bowling Center: 1-9 p.m., Tuesday Surfway: closed, Tuesday CRC/Raquetball Courts: 7:30 a.m. - 9 p.m., Tuesday Tape Escape: 11 a.m. - 8 p.m. Movie ratings Driving Range: closed, Monday and Tuesday Ten-Ten: 10 a.m. - 7 p.m., Tuesday Gear Locker : 4:30 - 6:30 p.m., Tuesday Vending: closed, Monday, Tuesday, Jan. 1 and 3.

This means that calculations for your deductible start over with the new year. Kwajalein Hospital will collect payment for offi ce visits from patients at the time of service. We are implementing this process for January and February to collect fees that will most likely be applied to your deductible up front instead of after insurance processing which has been our practice. Kwajalein Hospital will continue to fi le these claims with your insurance company on your behalf and provide you with a paid receipt so that you may track that your claims have been processed. Once we have established and documented that your deductible has been met, we will collect only your offi ce visit co-pay at the time of service. This process change applies to offi ce visits only. Lab and radiology will be fi led as usual and fees owed by the patient will be collected after the insurance company has processed the claim. Fees for medications are collected at the time they are picked up. MONTHLY ISLAND ORIENTATION will be at 1 p.m., on Jan. 25, in Community Activities Center Room 6.
