Pearl Harbor Memorial

          

The USS Arizona Memorial 
honoring the Sailors and Marines who lost their lives during the attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on
December 7, 1941.


The USS Arizona is the final resting place for many of the ship's 1,177 crewmen who lost their lives on December 7, 1941.  The Memorial structure spans the mid-portion of this sunken battleship. The United States flag flies from a flagpole which is attached to the severed mainmast of the sunken battleship.
