19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
Blue Angel #4 at Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum.

Some assembly required. As a docent at the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum, I documented the arrival and assembly of the #4 Blue Angel. The F/A-18C Hornet jet arrived in Hawaii by ship and was trucked from the dock to the museum on Feb. 2, 2021. A volunteer crew from the Air Force assisted with the assembly of the wings. Blue Angel #4 is now the main attraction in Building 79 at the museum.
