MISSION

Home of the Brave is a non-profit WWII and veterans history museum founded over 30 years ago by the Tomlinson family in Honolulu, Hawai‘i. Our mission is simple: Remember. Honor. Salute. We preserve the stories of the men and women who served, so future generations understand the cost of freedom.

In 2020, COVID shut down our Hawai‘i museum and destroyed the business that supported it. Rather than walk away, we made the decision to rebuild — relocating the Home of the Brave mission to Durango, Colorado, at our family property, Bear’s Ranch.
