IMMF

The International Midway Memorial Foundation (IMMF) is a non-profit, tax-exempt 501 (3)(c) organization, incorporated in the state of Maryland in 1992. You can learn more about the Foundation by visiting www.immf-midway.com.

We would love to hear from you. You can contact the IMMF at the following address and phone number or via this web link.  At this time, the function of this Web site is limited to promoting the goals of the Foundation, as, unfortunately, we do not have enough staff to answer questions regarding the Battle. In the future, we hope that will change. For now, however, you can learn about the Battle of Midway through our online documents and suggested reading.

  1. Seabee based there 71-73. Ashamed what the government and Fish /Wildlife, and Presidents have done to basically drop and forget about a historical island. All about the money, not respecting history.

  2. My father, Cmdr. Robert C. Cook, DDS, carved the Gooney Bird that is now a disregarded pile of garbage. He also carved a very large “ALOHA” sign that was installed at the airport. Not sure what became of that. But it just makes me sick to my stomach of what has become of what was a wonderful paradise. I mean this is CRIME!! It’s just absolutely horrible. I would hope that our nations leaders will step up and correct what is very obvious the murder of Midway Island. PLEASE!!

    1. Hello Rob. Do you have any good photos of your dad and the gooney bird as he carved it? All I have seen are very bad copies of a newspaper article. I run a website and I would like to update the photos in the article that I’ve written about it. You can email me at precisionartists@gmail.com

      Thank you so much.
