200201-N-MH811-1032 HONOLULU (Feb. 1, 2020) Lono, the deified guardian of agriculture, rain, health and peace, is brought to shore by Naval officers and paddlers during a Makahiki festival at Rainbow Bay Marina. Canoes are an important part of the Makahiki and adds to the festive atmosphere by providing a traditional means for the image of Lono arriving at the ceremony. The Makahiki festival is a yearly celebration similar to Thanksgiving that brings communities together to thank Lono. Since 2002 the Makahiki on Pearl Harbor has been meant to bring together the Native Hawaiian and military communities. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist Seaman Apprentice Molly M.
