Honolulu's police chief has picked two new deputy chiefs, a shake-up meant to fix hiring problems and spending at a department that has struggled with both.

• Brandon Nakasato, a 27-year veteran of major crimes and homicide, becomes second in command and will run field operations.
• Parker Bode, 39, is one of the youngest deputy chiefs in the department's history and will handle administration.
• Bode's background in human resources is aimed at a force that has trouble recruiting and keeping officers.
• The department just graduated 37 recruits, its biggest class in seven years.
• The bigger test is money: HPD has left millions of budgeted dollars unspent, and Bode is tasked with making sure it gets used.

Outlook: The next budget cycle will show whether the new leadership can turn allocated money into more officers on the street.
