Kahu Kordell Kekoa ceremoniously blesses the AH-64E Apache Guardian and welcomes it to the island for the first time. It is a tradition in the Hawaiian Islands to bless any type of new equipment by sprinkling the item with Hawaiian rain water and brushing it with palm leaves. This is the first time an Apache has been to Hawaii.
