Once upon a time, not too many years ago, a warship, an aircraft carrier, plied the waters of the Pacific Ocean searching for an enemy that was known, but whose whereabouts were not. Intrigue and a certain mystery accompanied her activities; she would strike an unsuspecting blow at a remote Japanese strategic target and then disappear in the vastness of the Pacific Ocean.
An eminent columnist of that era, Walter Winchell, gave her the sobriquet "The Galloping Ghost of the Oahu Coast," after her speedy, unbelievable overnight refueling and re-provisioning at Ford Island during the night of 8 December 1941. The moniker was, and is, forever hers. She continues to gallop through the annals of naval history and the minds of the men who served aboard her.
The performance, dedication, and devotion to ship and country by her crew in competition and under fire are unexcelled. The men of the "Big E" embodied the best of what it meant to be a US Servicemen: valor, courage, and sacrifice. The USS Enterprise was the most decorated carrier of World War II, reflecting the caliber and devotion of the men who comprised her crew.
This second installment of our Personal History Series brings to life the story of one of her crew members, radio-gunner Jack Leaming. After being shot down near Marcus Island, Mr. Leaming and his pilot spent the rest of the war as POWs in Japan. Relive his story of perseverance and courage under brutal conditions.
Soft cover. 112 pages. Includes black and white photos.

My best friend had a flag flown for my father when he passed, and I wanted to return the Hornor. Placed into a flag box along with the framed certificate is such a great way to remember a great friend that served our great country with commitment and grace. Our 3x5 flag and certificate arrived on time and exactly as expected. Bless you all that do this work for our loved ones.
I ordered the above referenced flag for my son-in-law. It was shipped directly to him. In past years I've purchased a few of the same flags (flags flown on earlier dates) for my wife and myself. Thanks for the wonderful service in shipping this flag to our son-in-law. And thank you very much for the work you folks do for Pacific Historic Parks and for keeping the collective memory of Pearl Harbor and U.S. entry into World War II in the Public's mind!

It is a beautiful design and message. The cotton is very lightweight. The neckline is very wide like a boatneck meets a deep scoop. It is not overly long or thin hitting me just at the hips so it looks dressier.
We needed a replacement for my dad's worn-out flag and after a wonderful trip to Hawaii I decided that the best way to commemorate it was to get this flag. My dad and my father in law both were in the service in WWII. We will be using it in our Northwoods home in Wisconsin.
Love the design of the graphics, but the womans shirts are not even close to size. While in Hawaii a couple of months we bought her a Womans Small at the park. Returned home and it was the size of a child's. I then ordered a Womans Large form this website and it is too small.
Just like the other pink shirt, it is a men’s or unisex cut shirt. I’ve ordered other women’s shirts and they are exactly as shown. Very disappointing!! No one from the shop responded to my email about the cut of this shirt.
