Pearl Harbor


A moving experience was our visit to the Pearl Harbor National Monument/Memorial. It was so well done and an unforgettable experience. We visited the ship and then were able to take in all the exhibits and galleries. I could have stayed there all day reading and learning. The entire memorial/park recalls the war in the Pacific Theater of WWII.

Seeing the famous monument that spans across the USS Arizona.
 

This is the wall with all the names of those who were lost. So tragic.



Brett found a Sevier listed among the dead. Don't think he is a known relation.

The flag that flows over the ship.

 


A model that shows how the ship is resting on the ocean floor with the memorial above.
