Request that the Department of Transportation designate Hilo International Airport as the General Albert Kualii Brickwood Lyman International Airport to honor Brigadier General Lyman's accomplishments.

Brigadier General Albert Kualii Brickwood Lyman was born on Hawaii on May 5, 1885, educated at Kamehameha, Punahou, and West Point Military Academy, and died in service on August 13, 1942.

General Lyman was the first man of Hawaiian ancestry to be appointed a brigadier general of the United States Army; the airport was previously named "General Lyman Field" by Territorial Legislature joint resolution on April 19, 1963.

Act 59 (Session Laws of Hawaii 1989) changed the airport's name to "Hilo International Airport" and named the passenger terminal "General Lyman Terminal"; a display case for General Lyman memorabilia was constructed in July 1992.

Certified copies to be transmitted to the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration Administrator, Hawaii Governor, Director of Transportation, Mayor of Hawaii County, and Hawaii County Department of Public Works Director.
