According to the docent at the Pacific Aviation Museum, the tower on Ford Island was freshly painted just before the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor and has never been repainted. |

One of the few things that remains of the NALF. When you traveled through the road, you can see some patches of pavement that once meant to be a runway. Too much history in a single place. |
