Morning and Evening Colors: A Time-Honored Tradition
Commander Navy Region Hawaii
Jan. 12, 2026 | 1:51
Each day across Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Colors is observed promptly at 0800. As the national ensign is raised up the mast, the national anthem is played and the flag remains unfurled throughout the day until it is lowered again at sunset to the sound of retreat. Morning and evening colors are observed every day without exception. Like many Navy traditions, Colors was first initiated by the Royal Navy in 1797 and adopted by the U.S. Navy in 1843. For many service members and civilians alike, this custom is rooted in a sense of deep contemplation and pride of service. No base in America has more reminders of the history, legacy and sacrifice of military service in the defense of our nation and the defense of freedom than here at Pearl Harbor.

Drug Detection Dog and Handler Maintain Security from Military's Largest Joint Kennel

The Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (JBPHH) Kennel is the largest joint kennel in the Department of War with military working dogs that can detect explosives and drugs. Fedra, one of the drug detection dogs, and her handler, Master-at-Arms 2nd Class Michael Cox, assigned to the JBPHH Naval Security Forces, help enforce a zero-tolerance drug policy, enhance security, and ensure good order and discipline on JBPHH. They conduct frequent drug sweeps on base and aboard various ships and submarines as needed. Many of the military working dogs at the JBPHH Kennel also undergo controlled aggression training and will bite on command as well as chase, apprehend, and hold uncooperative suspects as a less lethal option for force protection.
