Letter: Military must reduce isle land ownership

The increasing militarization of Hawaii is alarming. Besides the Army, Navy and Air Force trying to retain all their leased lands —Pohakuloa, Makua, Barking Sands, etc. — now the Air Force wants to build more telescopes on Haleakala. The state has a new Military and Community Relations Office. About half of Hawaii’s land (more than 2 million acres) is designated “Sentinel Landscapes” where anything interfering with the “Department of Defense mission” is discouraged.
