Buy a blue band to back your local battalion
The blue band, which has the words "Faith Hope Love" on the other side of it, sells for $4. Half the proceeds will be donated to organizations that support Hawai'i's military families affected by the war, including the Go For Broke Association, a veteran group from the 100th Battalion, 442nd Infantry Regiment.
PRZ Distribution, a local company headed by Tod Tomasa, makes the bands.

"Not just the best-selling album of the year, but one of the best to be released in the entire rock era. There has never been a record so sweet and meaningful that is ... so ... loud. ... I've played the spots off this sucker, and every time I listen to it, I can barely believe how good it is."
