Honolulu Hale in Days of Infamy
Oscar van der Kirk visited the "special cases" office at Honolulu Hale, wanting to learn the whereabouts of Charlie Kaapu. There he learned from the clerk, Alfred Choi, that Charlie was taken away by the Kempeitai and that there was nothing he could do to help him.

During the second American retaking of Hawaii, the Honolulu Hale was turned into a fortress by the remaining Japanese, who wanted to make a last stand. The Honolulu Hale was ultimately totaled into ruins by artillery bombardment and tank gunfire, and leaving American Marines and Army troops to clear out the Japanese survivors with flamethrowers and bayonets.
