A nice little base that is 100 times better than any other base in Louisiana. The people are friendly however the roads are a bit confusing and on the smaller side. I strongly suggest using GPS at first

John McAllister Schofield was a Civil War Union General involved in a number of important engagements including the battles of Wilson's Creek (where he earned the Medal of Honor), Franklin, and Nashville, as well as the Atlanta Campaign. Post-war, he served as Secretary of War under Presidents Johnson and Grant and Commanding General of the United States Army during the Cleveland and Harrison administrations.
In 1872, then Maj. Gen. Schofield visited Hawaii to assess potential port facilities. He concluded that the mouth of the Pearl River could be turned into a major port that could be easily defended. Following annexation in 1898, his recommendations were followed, and American forces began moving in. In 1908, construction began on what would eventually become this base, being named in honor of Schofield the following year. The newly formed Hawaiian Division arrived in 1921 and stayed until 1941 when reorganization led to the formation of two new divisions, the 24th and 25th. The two divisions went to war following Pearl Harbor and battled across the Pacific. The 25th returned to Schofield and has been permanently stationed here ever since (with combat deployments to Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq over the years).
A good way to learn about the history of Schofield Barracks and the 25th "Tropic Lightning" Division is to visit the base and particularly the Tropic Lightning Museum in Carter Hall, the old base library, in Building 361. When you're there, be sure to grab a copy of the historic guide for the base which provides a map showing various historic and architecturally interesting buildings around the base and even a suggested tour route.
Getting on the base is fairly easy. Assuming that you're coming from Honolulu via H-2. Just as H-2 ends and becomes Wilikina Drive (Route 99), you'll see signs to turn left onto Kunia Road to go to Schofield Barracks. Assuming you don't have a DoD ID, drive past the first gate (Foote Avenue) and go to the second gate (Lyman Road) where visitors can get a pass. You'll have to pull over to the inspection area and, following the MP's direction, get out and open the hood, trunk, and all the doors so they can look inside your vehicle. Assuming your license and registration (or car rental agreement) are in order, you'll be issued a dashboard pass. Once on base, keep an eye out to spot the signs that will direct you to the museum.
We spent a couple hours here (maybe an hour at the museum and another hour driving around looking at the various historic buildings and the base in general). We'd suggest coming on a weekend when things are a little quieter.

We were told that if we had time in Waikiki we should visit the US Army Military Museum. I’d say, make time in Waikiki to visit it. It is a real gem. It is packed with artifacts, carefully explained and put in context. Not propaganda or flag waving, but appreciative of the sacrifices our military has made. It puts a lot of emphasis on the Hawaiian story, which is appropriate given its location. This should be on any list of major attractions of Honolulu, and especially Waikiki.

The old barracks buildings of this post date back to well before World War II. They have been featured in many movies such as “From Here to Eternity.” They allow history buffs to take a look back at the pre-World War II military.

The museum is small but a small treasure. If you can makevit to one of their living history days its great and kids love it too.
The 5grift shop has great deals and food trucks, kiosks all over. Many food spots closed on weekend. Also look for weekends you can go up to kolekole pass, phenomenal views and great hikes.

Schofield Barracks is a rather odd name for an Army post but given the long and storied history of the 25th Infantry Division which is headquartered here, it is fitting. Nestled in the center of Oahu, it boasts an expansive footprint and beautiful views of the Waianae range. There is a legitimate museum on post as well as all amenities necessary for an operational garrison. It is worth a visit when on Oahu. Military access is required for entrance.

We always make a stop to the children’s cemetery when on Oahu. My little sister was buried here in 1959. Very peaceful to walk around and pay respect.

Schofield Barracks, the home of the US Army 25th Infantry Division is a sprawling base just outside of Wahiawa and a nice place to visit to escape the hustle of Waikiki, Military of all classes just need to show ID and visitors can access the base with permission. the Kole Kole Pass road open on weekends provides a route through the mountains where you can see the direction Japanese planes flew during their assault on Pearl Harbor. The Post Exchange has a nice food court and outside food stands that you can eat at without an ID Card. See it.

If you are able (Mil ID, or other) to visit this is a great drive through and see item. Lots of WWII era buildings and it is still a working Army post so you will see plenty of troops. Nostalgia for those stationed here and everywhere with all the amenities of a military post.

We would like to come and visit. My father was stationed here and it would be amazing to let him know we came here. Do you still give visitors clearance to tour the inside of barracks?
Feita em 22 de fevereiro de 2019
I am retired military so I had no trouble with access to the base. I. Believe to get “inside” of the Barack’s buildings you need an escort as they are still living spaces for some of the troops. I toured the outside of the barracks buildings and the quadrangles. I would recommend you check with the people working the front gate and if you are traveling from the mainland I would suggest you call the base Public Affairs office prior to beginning your trip.

I have 2 hand written letters from my great-great uncle, Virgil Ryan Dotson, in 1917 from Schofield Barracks. They were partially describing the Thanksgiving meal. They were sent to my great-grandmother and my Grandmother.
I would consider donating them to an Army museum there.
Can someone assist me in this?
Thank you,

I would love some information about having a tour of Schofield Barracks. I am very interested in the Korean War time period. I was born here in June 1950 right before my father left for Korea with the 5th RCT.

Do you have records of personnel attached to 25th Infantry staff on 12-7-1941? My father was on staff and i am trying to get info ab out his service. I met him once in my life. I am now 81 and trying to put his life together for the family.
His name was Raymond Edward Montgomery, dob:
1-6-1910. He was a SGT at the 25th Division Headquarters. One month after the Japs came over the hill he wrote my
mother and said his address was Schofield Barrack, % of Divisional Headquarters. He said he changed his to Robert A. Carey. I do not know if his name was changed before the attack or not. I have very little info about my dad. He never returned to his immediate family after his discharge in August of 1942. Where can I get help to obtain information?. Thank you.
Robert E. Montgomery

Probably the best way of contacting the JAG office would be to go on the Schofield Barracks website and there must be a directory of phone numbers...
