Very manicured and has one of the best views overlooking Honolulu. Very dignified and honorable burial site.
I came here twice within a week, very emotional moment as I am also a son of the veteran of South Vietnam
Beautiful views of Honolulu and Diamond Head. The Memorial is very peaceful with mosaics in an arc behind the main art deco figure outlining the major battles of U.S. combat units in WWll, Korea and Vietnam.
Every visit to Oahu, I visit the Punchbowl Crater to pay my respects at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific. This time I allowed extra time to take in the sights there. An overlook provides unique views over Honolulu and to the Ko'olau Mountains. Walking the entire perimeter proved how large it is and in its way, beautiful.
In 1958, my Father, Samuel P. BLackwell, Jr., CPO, was stationed at Pearl Harbor 1958~1962 where we lived in Naval Housing on the Base. The most beautiful years of my Life were spent on the Island of Oahu, and we prayed we would never have to leave. However, in 1962, we were transferred for the last time, and we were moved to San Francisco.nnAs a child, living in Hawaii, our weekends (and vacations) were spent at Bellows Beach. We took the Pali Highway to get there, and we would frequently spend time at the Punchbowl Crater.nnIn the decades that followed, we traveled from San Francisco to Oahu for vacations. The Punchbowl Crater was one of the most beautiful places to offer our prayers to the many, and to pay our respects to the Hawaiian Gods who welcomed our presence amidst such beauty.nnThank you for posting these extraordinary photographs.nnSuzanne Blackwell Alcalan4th of July 2018
