It has only taken us 11 months to address this (plus another viewer pointing out the same error), but the caption and links have finally been corrected. Thank you for pointing this out.

This is actually Hangar 6 on the southern end of Ford Island. Photo is taken from the water tower which like Hangar 6 is no longer there. Notice the wrecked seaplanes (PBY & OS2U) on ramp, aircraft here but not at Ewa Field.
