OCEANSIDE, Calif. (KGTV) - Decades after serving in World War II, a North County veteran is receiving one of the nation’s highest honors. Willie Pong enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1943; he was only 17 but lied about his age. He served almost three years as a ship's cook.Pong's parents were born in China and moved to America to give their kids a better life, which they did. But as a boy, Pong faced discrimination.

I have scars on my head right now from kids throwing rocks at me because I was Chinese," said Pong.Despite the bullying, Pong leaped at the opportunity to serve his country. "Oh yeah! I'm a true American. I'm a true American all the way. Just because of my color, don't mean a thing, it's inside my heart," said Pong.

"I love this country. I love this country."RELATED: Honor Flight San Diego celebrates life of WWII veteran who died on tripPong is a resident at Merrill Gardens at Oceanside, which held a special ceremony for all veterans in the community on Friday.

One U.S. president spoke with Sen. Susan Collins several times ahead of her announcement Friday that she would support Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court -- and he's been out of office for nearly a decade.Former President George W. Bush called a number of senators in recent weeks, and had several conversations with Collins to reassure the key Republican vote about Kavanaugh's character and temperament, a person familiar with the matter tells CNN.Kavanaugh's confirmation was thrown into doubt after a tense Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in which Christine Blasey Ford alleged the Supreme Court nominee had sexually assaulted her when they were in high school in the 1980s. Kavanaugh has denied all the allegations against him.Collins supported an additional FBI background check into the accusations, which stoked speculation that she might then break with Republicans and vote against Kavanaugh's nomination, but the results of that investigation -- along with Bush's calls -- paved the way for her support Friday. 1047

Officer Aja Ellis has patrolled the streets of Illinois for nine years. From Chicago to the suburbs, she decided to settle in a community called Harvey, just south of the city.With every call, she has one mission. "There’s not a lot of trust," said Officer Ellis. "My goal was to try to change the perception."It’s a challenge across the country, but in the city of Harvey, especially, trust between an officer and the community they serve is hard to build."A couple years ago, the department was raided by the FBI. The department was raided by the state police. There’s a history here that we can’t ignore, and we want to show them we aren’t the same old Harvey," said Police Chief Robert M. Collins, Jr. of the City of Harvey Police Department.With the department’s new direction, comes new technology. It's an effort, "to weed the bad ones out so that we’re able to have a police department full of officers that are here willing to come to work for the citizens," said Officer Ellis.The department now has an early-intervention system for officer behavior run by Chicago company Benchmark Analytics. "We’re going to be able to help police departments understand that pattern of behavior and intervene long before you have very problematic incidents," said the company's CEO Ron Huberman, a former officer himself.The program collects all kinds of data on officers. It tracks things like arrests, traffic stops, citizen complaints and training. It also goes beyond those data points; the app also tracks officer overtime, vacation time, officer awards and positive comments, and promotions, in an effort to not only flag the negative, but to track potential for recognition as well.Once this information is compiled, it flags officers who may be at-risk for more serious misconduct in the future."This system will identify if this officer needs to be re-trained, if there needs to be discipline, and unfortunately if that officer needs to be terminated," said Chief Collins.Officer Ellis sees this intervention not only as a chance to change the culture for police, she believes it will help in the community too. "Sometimes, you may get that coworker that you don’t want to work with because maybe their attitude or maybe how they handle things, and you’ll get to a scene and they just blow it up, and I think to look at it from that aspect, it gives us better coworkers," Officer Ellis said.She is hoping community trust will be the biggest gain. "Once they see one bad officer, it's war from there. But if they’re seeing that something’s being done about this bad officer they’ve been complaining about, they’ll say, 'Maybe we can trust them a little bit more,'" said Officer Ellis.The Harvey Police Department has only had the technology for a couple of months, so they have not collected enough data yet to see how their officers are doing. But a police department in North Carolina created their own similar early intervention system several years ago, and the chief there said it's been a big help for officer morale and mental health."A lot of times, they may be going through something others don’t see, but through our early intervention system, we might identify characteristics that allow them to open up to speak about things that are bothering them or they’re going through," said Johnny Jennings, chief of the Charlotte-Mecklenberg Police Department.But experts warn, with all the improvements technology like this can bring, comes limitations."The supervisors—they have to be inclined to use the information because they can ignore it on the system just like if it’s sitting in the drawer," said John Rappaport, a University of Chicago professor of law. "It relies on the people to use the technology correctly and honestly and to want to move the department in the right direction."For Officer Ellis, she knows in the end, it will take more than just the data to reform a department."I think it’s going to take a good while, but I'm willing to stand in the fight to see the change," she said. Real change that may come more quickly with a little help."If that technology helps out in a positive way, we have a duty to use that to make ourselves better to better serve the community," said Chief Collins. 4232

OCEANSIDE, Calif. (KGTV) - After years of planning, the City of Oceanside is now weeks away from breaking ground on a project that will create a new source of drinking water. Called Pure Water Oceanside, recycled water with go through a rigorous purification system, ultimately supplying 32 percent of the city's water supply needs. "It's more sustainable and will help us stabilize rates moving forward," said Sarah Davis, a Senior Environmental Specialist with the City of Oceanside.Right now, the city is offering tours of its water plant and educating residents on Pure Water Oceanside. LIFE IN OCEANSIDE:Oceanside's brewery scene helps spur city's growthFrom 'Ocean Side' to region's third-largest city5 places to spend the day in Oceanside"Oh, the town is growing, yes. It seems like every open space I see in Oceanside is going to have a house on it," said Tad Shiner, an Oceanside resident of eight years. On Shiner's mind is whether the new source of water will be safe and how the project will impact resident's bills. Similar projects have gained headlines because water from your sinks and toilets is recycled into drinking water.Davis wants to assure the public that Pure Water Oceanside will yield high-quality drinking water that is clean, safe, drought-proof, and environmentally sound. "Currently, Oceanside imports the majority of our water from Northern California or the Colorado River, so that comes from hundreds of miles away, and takes a lot of energy to transport. Also, the cost of that continues to increase," said Davis. The process uses state-of-the-art water purification steps that replicate and accelerate nature's natural recycling process:Microfiltration - Filters remove bacteria and suspended solids from reclaimed waterReverse Osmosis - Ultra-fine filters remove salt, viruses, bacteria, pharmaceuticals and chemicalsUltraviolet Light and Advanced Oxidation - The final polishing step neutralizes any remaining substancesInjection - Minerals are added before the water is injected into the Mission BasinTreatment - Water is extracted from the aquifer and treated again at the city’s Mission Basin Groundwater Purification FacilityDelivery - The water is distributed to customersThe city plans to break ground in January 2020 and the facility is expected to be complete in 2022.To learn more about the project or sign up for a tour, click here. 2389
