JB Pearl Harbor-Hickam Hickam Field Art
JB Pearl Harbor-Hickam Hickam Field Art.
Hickam Field, a cornerstone of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, holds a storied legacy dating back to its establishment in 1938. As a key airpower hub in the Pacific, it has played a crucial role in U.S. military operations, from World War II to modern-day global force projection. Home to the 15th Wing and supporting Pacific Air Forces, Hickam ensures rapid mobility, air refueling, and mission readiness across the Indo-Pacific. Its strategic location makes it vital to national defense, fostering joint operations with the Navy and partner nations. This artwork honors Hickam Field’s proud heritage and its continued commitment to air dominance in the Pacific.

JB Pearl Harbor-Hickam Hickam Field vintage style military aviation travel poster art by – Squadron Posters!
Historic Building 1 (now Bldg 2050) was constructed in 1938 as the Base Operations building for Hickam Field . From the observation tower, located atop of Building 1, Captain Gordon Blake directed 11 of the 12 inbound B – 17s to safety on December 7, 1941 – the flight’s arrival was coincident with the first wave of attacking Japanese aircraft. Although located adjacent to the newly constructed Army barracks (now Headquarters, Pacific Air Forces), the Base Operations building survived the sunrise attack because Japanese intelligence identified the operations hub as the Officer’s Club. The barracks was heavily damaged during the attack. From the observation tower, Col Farthing, the wing commander in December 1941, also witnessed the first flight of attacking Japanese aircraft inbound to strike Pearl Harbor ’s battleship row. Joint Base Pearl Harbor – Hickam is a U.S. military facility adjacent to Honolulu, Hawaii and is a combination of both Hickam Air Force Base and Naval Base Pearl Harbor.
