Here's the story I dug up...

a year or so back. Talked to Carl myself.

Whale picture hub mold chips

Carl Hamaishi, APO 96555, San Franciusco CA

Carl connected to P&C Plumbing, 950 Sunset Strip, Mountain Home, ID 83647
208-587-2777

1966 or 67 Carl ordered about 3000 chips from Mason Co. They were to have a saying hot stamped such as
“Wale On” or similar. Business term. Mason mistook order and sent chips with a picture of a “Whale” “on” the chips.

Carl was in the Air Force stationed on Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands. This base was part of the Ronald Reagan Missel Defense System and also an antenna base for GPS satellite tracking.
