Battle Damage







The Seaplane hanger was heavily damaged when the island was bombed on December 7, 1941. When it was rebuilt the concrete that had been inside the hanger was outside because the hanger that was rebuilt had a smaller footprint. The damaged concrete from the battle is still in place and I happened by that area this morning shortly after a rain so the pitted surface was accented. Here are a couple pictures from that area.

  1. Gary,
    Interesting photos and commentary! Thanks for sharing. What's the future of the hanger? What about all the "stuff" inside?
