Description: The “Home of the Brave Quilt Project” has announced its 2010 schedule, as it returns to Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor to offer Museum visitors a way of expressing gratitude to the families of Hawaii soldiers who have died in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

What began as a grassroots effort to warm soldiers during the Civil War has become a way of expressing the gratitude of a nation for soldiers fallen in wartime. During the American Civil War, quilts sewn on the home front served as bedrolls and hospital blankets and offered a measure of comfort to those far away from their loved ones. In that tradition, the “Home of the Brave Quilt Project” volunteers hand sew and present a homemade quilt to the family of every soldier who has died in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Coupon for a free Combat Simulator Flight is available online. More information is available by phone at 441-1000 or www.PacificAviationMuseum.org. Tickets may be purchased online or at the USS Arizona Memorial Visitor Center. Pacific Aviation Museum is located at 319 Lexington Boulevard in Hangar 37 on Ford Island at Pearl Harbor.
