SAVE DEC. 7, 1941 EWA FIELD from the BULL DOZERS ! |
|
Save Ewa Field has organized this annual event to bring attention to the long forgotten USMC airfield which was attacked on December 7, 1941. All major Oahu, Hawaii sites attacked on December 7, 1941 have become recognized National Battlefields and National Landmarks, EXCEPT for Ewa Field, which was forgotten and largely used as a race track and trash dump after the base officially closed in 1952. The US Navy has consistently ignored Federal Preservation Laws and public and political sentiment and transferred the land to a developer in 2008. Since then there has been an ongoing degrading process of the World War II--December 7, 1941 battlefield site where artifacts have been carried away or buried by site developers. |
