Dear Governor Lingle:

It is my privilege to present the State of Hawaii, Department of Defense Annual Report for FY 08.

The Hawaii Army National Guard’s 29th Infantry Brigade Combat Team prepared for its upcoming deployment to Kuwait by conducting two annual training sessions. Other soldiers supported real-world contingency operations in Afghanistan, Iraq and the Philippines as well as exercises in locations such as Indonesia.

The Hawaii Air National Guard supported operational contingencies in Germany, Guam and Ecuador, as well as exercises in locations such as Australia. Of particular note were the C-17 missions to Sichuan Province, China, to deliver relief supplies following the devastating earthquake of May 2008.

Under the coordination of State Civil Defense, both Army Guard and Air Guard personnel assisted Maui residents following the flooding of December 2007. SCD also hosted numerous exercises and conferences with our federal, state, county and private sector partners throughout the year, helping to strengthen Hawaii’s response to future natural disasters.

The Office of Veterans Services continues with outreach to Hawaii’s veteran population and their families. One out of ten Hawaii residents has served in the Armed Forces, one of the highest proportions of veterans of any state in the nation.

The Youth CHalleNGe Academy helped another 200 cadets get their high school education and get back on track to becoming productive citizens. YCA also continues to foster partnerships with state agencies and the private sector to assist with job placement of program graduates.

Sincerely,

ROBERT G.F.LEEMajor GeneralHawaii Army National GuardAdjutant General
