    A ceremonial blessing is taking place inside an aircraft hangar, likely at the Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor based on the shirt visible on one attendee. A clergy member in white vestments with a purple stole is performing what appears to be a Hawaiian blessing, holding a wooden bowl and green ti leaves. A U.S. Navy officer in digital camouflage uniform and a civilian are receiving the blessing, both wearing traditional Hawaiian lei.

Sailors and civilians took the time to help restore Atoll Murals that were unveiled at the museum’s hangar following a panel discussion during the event. The Battle of Midway was one of the most decisive U.S. victories against Japan during World War II. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Christopher Hubenthal)
