Very impressive place that inspires deep thoughts. From the start of colonial imperialism and on to the end of World War II. Never forget, or be so unprepared. Can't say enough, a must see for any history buffs.

Center for Pacific War Studies

The archives of the National Museum of the Pacific War hold thousands of manuscripts, documents, photographs and recorded interviews with Pacific War veterans. Recognizing that these collections are an invaluable resource for historians and students of history, the Museum established the Center for Pacific War Studies, a premier destination for scholars of Pacific War history.
