The Base Camp of the former Koko Crater Air Force Station has been demolished to make way for a park expansion for the City of Honolulu. The only structures remaining from WW-II era are Building 14 (Ammunition Magazine), the first photo shows Bldg. 14, with Bldg. T-1 (Quonset-hut Mess Hall) in the back. Building T-1 was reported to be spared from the wreckers ball also. The last photo (Bldg. T-1 060901-B) shows Koko Crater behind the Mess Hall, where the Ops Area was located. The last photo shows the cross ties for the cable tramway from the Base Camp to the Ops Area.

These are photos taken with my digital camera today (Sun, 10 Oct 1999) of the former AC&W site located at Koko Crater on Oahu. The original base camp and Ops site atop the crater were built in W.W.II and was taken over by the Hawaii Air National Guard before closing. Access to the Ops area was via a tramway (rail) running from the base camp up to the peak of the crater. Koko Crater is around 1200 ft. in height and is located in the Southeastern part of Oahu.

The State of Hawaii took over the former radar site after closing and it was then used for a number of years by the Job Corps. to teach disadvantaged youths job skills.
