And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Used to see PBY's take-off and land in San Diego Bay in the 50's. NAS North Island had/has seaplane ramps. USCG seaplanes would cross Harbor Drive- signage said CAUTION - SEAPLANE CROSSING
I crossed a highway to get to CGAS San Diego in an HU-17 back in the late 70's, (the planes weren't doing water work anymore). It was different crossing the road.
