Historic Hangar 79 at Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum withstood the attack on Pearl Harbor 80 years ago, and still holds evidence of the attack today. The window panes within Hangar 79 are riddled with bullet holes from December 7, 1941! In order to maintain this historic, battle-tested and war-torn hangar, the Museum needs help to repair the roof so visitors for generations to come can honor the sacrifices of the Greatest Generation and explore history safely. Tune into our virtual program to learn more and help us protect this historic hangar to ensure that what happened on Ford Island and at Pearl Harbor are never forgotten.
