REMEMBER
On December 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor sustained a vicious attack, resulting in the deaths of 2,403 military personnel and civilians, pulling the United States of America into a war that changed the course of history. On that day, our country made a promise to always remember. By bringing students to learn history at The World War II History Museum and Research Center, you are doing your part to fulfill that promise.
HONOR
Remembering the World War II experience is the first step in honoring military and civilian heroes. Today’s students can’t honor what they don’t know. The knowledge gained on your field trip creates a sense of commemorative respect for the generation who saved the world from evil.
EDUCATE
The best way to remember and honor the World War II experience is through the lessons of history. Educate students with a unique and engaging field trip to the World War II Museum and Research Center.
