As the 75th anniversary of the Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor approaches, here are two options to learn more about the event that triggered America’s entry into World War II:

AVIATOR’S TOUR

Walk among the aircraft and heroes of the War in the Pacific during the guided, behind-the-scenes Aviator’s Tour at the Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor on Ford Island.

Docents take visitors to Hangar 37, which holds the museum’s lobby, 200-seat theater and vintage aircraft, before exploring the 2-acre Hangar 79, also known as the Restoration Hangar, which still bears bullet holes from the Japanese attack. The former maintenance and engine repair facility holds modern fighter jets and a restoration shop equipped with WWII tools. (You might even be invited to shoot a rivet, Rosie the Riveter style.)

Try a combat flight simulator and watch actual footage of the attack narrated by Pearl Harbor survivors.

Cost: $35 for adults, $22 for children ages 4 to 12, free for children 3 and under (self-guided audio tours are $25 and $12); find discounts by booking online at pacificaviationmuseum.org. Shuttles depart every 15 minutes from the Pearl Harbor Visitors Center from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.
