  • Pearl Harbor Week 5 Veterans
    Annie G. Fox (1893-1987) On December 7, 1941, First Lt. Annie Fox was stationed at Hickam Field adjacent to the naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. She was the chief nurse, and became the first woman to receive the Purple Heart in 1942 for “outstanding performance of duty” during the attacks. Her “calmness, courage and leadership was of great benefit to the morale of all with whom she came in contact.” Initially reserved for bravery in action, today the Purple Heart is awarded to those injured or killed in combat. This criteria change was made during World War II, so in 1944 the Army rescinded her Purple Heart and replaced it with the Bronze Star. Fox enlisted in the Army Nurse Corps in 1918 and retired from military service in 1945. She died in 1987, and is buried in San Francisco National Cemetery (Section A, Annie G. Fox, Grave 657-A). Army Nurse Corps, ca. 1940s. Edwin Joseph Hill (1894-1941) Edwin Joseph Hill was born 1895 in Philadelphia, and he enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1912. Chief Boatswain Hill was serving on the USS Nevada at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941. The Nevada was the only battleship to escape the harbor that day, and Hill led the effort to release the ship from her moorings. He dove off the ship to cast off the lines and swam back to assume his duties on board, but he was killed when a bomb struck the bow. Hill received the Medal of Honor posthumously for his actions during the attack.

    January 14, 2020 SIXTEEN STUDENT-TEACHER TEAMS CHOSEN TO STUDY WORLD WAR II IN HAWAIʻI National History Day and Pearl Harbor Historic Sites Provide Learning, Research, and All Expenses Paid Trips to Hawaiʻi WASHINGTON, D.C.—Sixteen student-teacher teams from across the United States have been selected to participate in the second annual Sacrifice for Freedom®: World War II in the Pacific Student & Teacher Institute. The program, coordinated through National History Day®, is sponsored by Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum, Pacific Fleet Submarine Museum, the USS Missouri Memorial Association, and Pacific Historic Parks. This institute brings student-teacher teams from Hawaiʻi and American Samoa together with teams from the U.S. mainland for the distinctive opportunity to study, consider, and reflect upon World War II in a way that few have done before. Over the next six months, students and teachers will read books and selected materials, engage in online discussions, and research a Silent Hero®, a military service member who died in World War II and is buried or memorialized at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. In June, the teams will meet in Oʻahu where they will walk in the footsteps of history, and learn firsthand about the impact of World War II in the Pacific. Travel and program expenses are provided for all participants. The experience will culminate with the completion and presentation of the teams’ Silent Hero eulogies and profiles, which will be featured on NHDSilentHeroes.org, as well as the websites of the sponsoring organizations. “We are grateful to be working again with our friends and partners from the Pearl Harbor Historic Sites to offer this extraordinary opportunity,” said National History Day Executive Director Dr.
