NEW! Discover the exciting new renovations and exhibits in the George Bush Gallery.
The Asian look and feel of this gallery places you in that setting so that you can begin to understand one of the large lessons of the Bush Gallery – World War II in the Pacific was not a side show of the war in Europe. It was a unique conflict with its own history and character. The brand new George Bush Gallery tells the story of the Pacific War. The story includes media rich presentations, meaningful testimonials and historically significant artifacts. It covers all aspects and stages of the Pacific War including:

China, Japan and the United States	Guadalcanal	Propaganda and Submarine War
Japan’s Road to Empire	New Guinea and the Solomons	Strategic Bombing
Countdown to War	Tarawa	Iwo Jima
Pearl Harbor	Texas in World War II, CBI	Okinawa
Doolittle Raid	Rainbow Five and Peleliu	Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Coral Sea and Midway	Leyte Gulf	Victory

The Museum employs a variety of techniques and resources to convey to the visitor both the shock and the destruction caused by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. We call it a high impact experience, and at its center is a spectacular artifact, the HA-19, one of five Japanese 2-man submarines that took part in the attack, along with six aircraft carriers and over 350 attack aircraft. Visitors can also explore in depth the story of the fall of Bataan and Corregidor and the Bataan Death March through a new interactive computer installation.
