Hawaii - Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona Memorial and USS Missouri in 3D


Pearl Harbor
Hawai'i
USS Arizona Memorial and USS Missouri
The bookends in a chapter of America's history....

The Memorial straddles the sunken hull of the battleship USS Arizona and commemorates the December 7, 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the catastrophic event that propelled America's participation in World War II.

On the deck of the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, the war is officially over with the signing of the instrument of surrender on September 2, 1945.
