Revisit moments from Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor to its surrender aboard the battleship USS Missouri on an exclusive, behind-the-scenes, five-hour experience. A 30-minute drive brings you to the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum. World War II began for the United States on Dec. 7, 1941, when Japanese fighter planes attacked the U.S. base at Pearl Harbor in one of the deadliest attacks in U.S. military history. Visit the hangars for a unique look at the aviation history of the United States, view a host of fighter planes including the Curtiss P-40E Warhawk, and enjoy unprecedented access to historic Ford Island control tower. Lunch is included. Then, step aboard the USS Missouri battleship, or "Mighty Mo." Learn what it took for this grand ship to operate her massive gun turrets, and imagine the moment when the Japanese signed the surrender documents ending the war. Return to port at the conclusion of this epic day.
