Naval Aviaiton Hall of Honor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The United States Naval Aviation Hall of Honor, located at the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, Florida, recognizes individuals for extraordinary achievements in US naval aviation. Since its inception in 1979, the Hall of Honor has enshrined 79 people representing every element of the naval aviation family: US Navy, US Marine Corps, US Coast Guard, Civilian and every naval warfare community. Selectees are chosen by a board appointed by the Director, Air Warfare Division, Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, sponsor of the Hall of Honor, and approved by the Chief of Naval Operations.
