thank you for your service the boys that were in there will be in our hearts for ever and i'm grateful that they together ️️
Pleasant, well cared for memorial. My 2 year old did manage to get his head stuck between the I'm not sure what to call them... name stakes? But we really lifted him out and learned to hold him.
So grateful for all who served and remembering the lives lost during this tragic event. It was a really cool experience to tour and pay our respects. We didn't spend too much time at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. The USS Arizona is closed for maintenance but there's a free Memorial program which includes a documentary film with actual attack footage as well as a ride on a US Navy Shuttle boat to the Memorial. Tickets for the USS Arizona Memorial program are given out free of charge each morning on a first come, first served basis. There were plenty at 945 a.m. when we grabbed ours. It rained when we arrived but skies were clear again within 15 minutes. Dress appropriately. I didn't get sick on the shuttle boat but I will say I was dizzy for the following 3 days because of it. I regretted not taking a dramamine (I get nauseated easily- even in car rides). Our online 45 ticket included the Battleship Missouri, where the documents ending World War II were signed and the USS Oklahoma Memorial. We also explored the Bowfin submarine using an audio tour. Make sure you reserve enough time to explore everything! Everyone went with a tour guide on the Missouri, but because our time was limited, we winged it and went solo. We got there at 945 a.m and left at 130 p.m and let me tell you, that was us rushing. We didn't stop to eat or shop in the stores. It took about 20 minutes to wait for the shuttle bus to go back. You can snack on the nearby 6 hot dog while you wait, like I did. Overall, it was a great experience! Edit: I forgot to add I did stop at the jewelry shop. Opened a clam and found a pearl. It's located on the left side of the entrance to the overpriced store. It's 15, but it's free if you buy your expensive newspaper photo after the tour next door. Or if you mount it, which I did on a white gold ring with a diamond. So beautiful and fun to do. But expect to spend about 200 and up to mount it on a jewelry (ring, necklace etc.) I'll post photos!
Awesome experience and excellent well presented memorial to the men who passed away at the moment in time that the USA entered the second World War.
Peaceful and serene. Nice walk if you are staying on Ford Island. In front of Mighty Mo
Located in Pearl Harbour and a very emotional experience and would not have missed this for the world.
On the 66th Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, a memorial for the 429 crew members who were killed in the attack was dedicated on Ford Island, just outside of the entrance of where the Battleship USS Missouri is docked. The USS Oklahoma memorial is an arrangement of engraved black granite walls and white marble posts. Not until visiting the Pearl Harbor National Memorial did I learn of how many total lives were lost on the USS Oklahoma, the one I always knew about was the Arizona because it was such a huge number. This is definitely worth a stop before or after going into the USS Missouri.
