We are pleased to offer to the department the 5 Ton Cargo Truck which we acquired at a recent military surplus auction. A copy of the End Use Certificate is enclosed. I also enclose a corporate resolution authorizing the donation of the truck to the County of Hawaii. We have instructed our attorney, Alan Okamoto, to work with you and the Corporation Counsel's office to prepare any other documentation that may be required to complete the transfer. We really appreciate the services of your department and look forward to assisting you and the members of 9 Bravo in the future in providing effective fire protection in South Kohala and elsewhere on Hawaii.
