The Arlanza District of Riverside can trace its origins to Camp Anza, a World War II U.S. Army staging area, which was part of the Los Angeles Port of Embarkation from 1942 to 1946. Here troops spent their last 10 days on U.S. soil before boarding a troop transport ship for the Pacific theater. While in camp, soldiers made final equipment checks and preparations for the possibility of not returning home. To boost morale, Hollywood stars of the day, including Bob Hope and Shirley Temple, performed for the men and women headed into the conflict. At wars end, Camp Anza was a major welcome home point for nearly half a million victorious soldiers returning from the Pacific. Today the neighborhood of Arlanza occupies the site of this once-bustling camp, where remnants of the past still exist and where components for the 21st-century aerospace industry are manufactured.

uick, what did you have for dinner two months, three weeks, and six days ago? If you're a little fuzzy on the details, you're, well, normal. It's easy to forget something you're not continually thinking about. Out of sight, out of mind, right? Unfortunately, thinking primarily about what's in front of us, i.e., electronic gadgets, squabbling children, or the old woman in church who won't stop whispering to her friend during the service, blocks out some really important stuff. Take, for example, the weighty matters of personal identity, ultimate purpose, and eternal destination. Karl Haffner's wit and wisdom combine in this lightheartedly serious exploration of three questions to which our souls demand answers: Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? Living with the answers scribbled on 3 × 5 cards plastered before our eyeballs might reset our priorities for about 30 minutes. Maybe that's why God said something about inscribing His priorities on our hearts. Book jacket.
