Hawaii ... Pacific Aviation
Museum
On Wednesday, October 29, we drove to the Pacific
Aviation Museum, which is located on Ford Island in Pearl
Harbor. There are many displays detailing the attack on
Pearl Harbor, along with several vintage airplanes that have been
significant in military history. One of the display
buildings is a hangar that was there during the attack on December
7, 1941, complete with windows that were broken during the
explosions and bullet holes in the glass and the
walls.
As you cross the bridge onto Ford Island, you
pass within sight of the USS Arizona memorial and the battleship
USS Missouri Memorial. It was on this battleship that Japan
surrendered ending WWII.
