Global War on Terrorism Freedom Memorial
A new monument was unveiled in the WWII Memorial Plaza at Veterans Park in December 2014. The plaza and the Pearl Harbor centerpiece began with a donation from Wanda Pope Felton, a Navy doctor's wife who survived the Pearl Harbor attack with her 15-month-old daughter in the basement of officers' quarters at the Kaneohe Bay Naval Air Station.
