Private Ralph Yeager was stationed in Hawaii in late 1940, and was assigned to the 22nd Material Squadron, 17th Air Base Group, Hickam Field. Almost eight decades later, a tradition of service in the Pacific continues. Yeager’s granddaughter, inspired by his service, walks on the same ground he did so many years ago. U.S. Air Force Col.
