Comments: My middle name is Francis Gilman Ka'oa'o Forsythe. I have never married. Adam K. (Ka'oa'o) is my father. I was employed by the Navy at Pearl Harbor for 31 years. I have been active, having served in 4 Bprics, 2 High Councils. I had a degree and after several years of working various places, I had an interview for a Budget Clerk-Statistician position at Pearl Harbor. The interviewer noticed my application included the ability to speak Japanese. I gave him a translation of a sentence he gave me and I got the job - and stayed there until I retired in 1994. The Lord blesses each of us - since it didn't seem like it was my having a degree in accounting, nor my score on the test that allowed me the opportunity to be interviewed, it was because of a skill in a language that I learned on my mission. And, at that time, the influx of Japanese visitors to Hawaii was having a real positive effect on the economy - and the tourist industry was searching for those who had Japanese-English speaking skills.
