On Saturday, December 7, the Intrepid Museum will commemorate the 78th anniversary of the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor–an attack that claimed over 2,400 lives and tested our country’s resilience, resolve and ability to unite in defense of uncompromised freedoms. Join us aboard Intrepid for a day of events remembering this fateful moment in history and honoring the brave men and women who took up the fight for freedom in the war that followed the attack. All events are free with Museum admission.
