My dad started his career as a pilot in the Air Force at Dover, Delaware. He said that is the 12 months we were there he never saw the ground. It was always rainy and overcast and IFR only. They regularly had to fly to Thule Air Base in Greenland. He really hated doing it at night, and that was in a C-124 with full time navigator, and a co-pilot on board.
After a year of going to Thule, his chance for a new assignment came up, and the Hawaii territory was on the list. For some reason he thought Hawaii was a great choice after so many missions to Thule. The rumor was that there was a naked woman behind every tree in Thule. Unfortunately no trees at all.
