US Army Museum.

Fort DeRussy is an open U.S. Army Base.

It includes the Hale Koa, one of the nicest beaches in Waikiki and the museum in Battery Randolph:

Interesting exhibits inside a pre-WWII built coastal fortification. This main battery building was to have been demolished to make way for new hotels, but the strength of the fort proved too much for economical destruction, saving this piece of history.

A limited number of WWII era military vehicles in front, and a Vietnam era Cobra gunship on top.
