REMEMBRANCE DAY: Fighter Pilot Recounts Tales of Valor and Heroism; Commemorative Medals Awarded to Rosies, Veterans By Julie McDonald For The Chronicle Students from Cascade El- ementary School scrambled onto the playground in September 1927, necks craned back to see national hero Charles Lindbergh flying over Chehalis during his 48-state tour. Lindbergh circled the play- ground twice as 9-year-old Har- ry Hokanson and his classmates waved wildly to hail the man who flew alone across the Atlan- tic Ocean that May. “The world went crazy with his exploit,” Hokanson, now 97, told more than 100 people at the Pearl Harbor/World War II Re- membrance Day dinner at the Veterans Memorial Museum in Chehalis Sunday afternoon. “I’d already been wanting to be an airplane pilot, so that just en- hanced my desire.” As a boy, he loved reading Julie Zander-McDonald / For The Chronicle At the Pearl Harbor/WWII Remembrance dinner, keynote speaker Harry Hokanson, pulp fiction magazines with ex- Howard Gage, Centralia, who served aboard the USS Nevada at Pearl Harbor in citing stories of harrowing events of Adna, shared his stories of entering Navy light training before the advent of World War II.

Chehalis. “I had to have the next episode because he was going down in flames and you had to know how he got out of it.” A Navy recruiter in dress blue uniform with gold braids and gold wings on his chest met with Chehalis High School students to talk about the military. “He immediately dashed my hopes because the Navy required four years of college, and no way my folks could send me to col- lege in those days,” Hokanson said. While he and another young graduate were working for the summer at an Eastern Washing- ton wheat ranch near Pullman, the owner suggested they register at Washington State College. At that time, tuition was $28.50 per semester and housing in a brand- new dorm cost $35. The young men worked as janitors to pay those fees, and to cover the $29 monthly board, Hokanson said, “I was lucky enough to land a job waiting tables at the commons.” After graduating with a bach- elor’s degree in forestry, he joined Bill Furrer, right, Centralia, a Pearl Harbor survivor who served on Ford Island when the Japanese attacked, speaks to his wife, Elaine, at the dinner.

Prior to the arrival of the crew, Navarette was able to free the obstruction using back blows. The infant vomited and began to recover, her skin color returning back to normal. “It’s pretty challenging for us to clear an airway in that situa- tion,” Shay Goff, a firefighter and paramedic, said.

COMMENTARY: Highlighting Lewis County There’s Plenty to Do During the Holidays I can’t remember the last time I felt bored. Who has time? Anyone at a loss last weekend had plenty of options, including the Santa Parade in Chehalis, “A Sugar Plum Tea” at Bethel Church, and a Bluegrass Christmas Concert at Adna Grange. After the Lewis County Historical Museum’s Evening with the Authors Friday, I took my daughter and her friend to watch a mes- merizing performance of “The Christmas Carol” at the Evergreen Playhouse. We sat awed by the acting of Richard Garrett, who performed the parts of Charles Dickens and Ebenezer Scrooge. His acting drew us into the story completely. The rest of the cast also performed admirably, including Chronicle writer Carrina Stanton’s 8-year-old daughter, Ruby, who played “the child.” If you missed it, you can still see “The Christ- mas Carol.” Performances run this weekend and next — 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, 8 p.m. Fridays and By Julie McDonald Saturdays, and 2 p.m. Sundays. Of course, I’m no connoisseur of plays.

Chronicle readers share their thoughts every day through social media, including Facebook, Twitter and the comment section of Chronline.com. Here are some of the recent highlights of conversation.

Readers respond on Facebook to story detailing reports to Grays Harbor Sheriff’s Office after a Muslim man was seen walking down a street wearing a white robe:

Cynthia Sommers: Ridiculous. I’m worried about you crackheads.

Norma Szabo: This is what Trump wants everyone to do. It’s only the beginning ... I feel much more uncomfortable around some of the people I encounter on the street and in the store than by someone walking down the road minding his own business.

Shannon Leigh Martin: Idiots ... seriously. Everyone who called should be ashamed.

Lou Oliver: Stupid brainwashed liberal sheep that think they are so smart they know how to run your life and call you names. I say anyone will be a better president then Obum- mer or the liar, corrupt , incompetent Hellary.

Reader responds on Facebook to news that Lewis County commissioners award $300,000 in distressed county funds to the Discover! Children’s Museum:

Brandy Aird: The Hands on Children’s mu- seum is about $11 per person. I think $6 or $7 is a more reasonable price with maybe a dis- count for nonperishable food donation. From a sales point of view I think a lower price will get more people in the doors and give a better profit in the long run and customers are more likely to return.

NFL Seahawks: Suddenly Danger-Russ COMING ON: QB Russell Wilson leads 38-7 romp over Vikings By Dave Campbell The Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS — The pass rush was a problem for the Seattle Seahawks earlier in the season, but lately they've given Russell Wilson plenty of time to throw. He's been putting on quite the show. Wilson threw for three touch- downs and rushed for another, Seattle's defense didn't allow a score and the surging Seahawks won their third straight game Sunday with a 38-7 romp over the Vikings. "When he's able to stay in the pocket, make his reads and de- liver the ball like he's been doing the last 12 quarters, he becomes so deadly because he still has the ability to get out of the pocket and work his magic. When he's playing like this, it's hard to say who's better than him," said Doug Baldwin, who caught five of Wilson's passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns. Wilson has thrown for 11 scores without an interception and an average of 293 yards with a 76.7 completion percentage Ann Heisenfelt / The Associated Press during the winning streak.
