The USS Arizona was dedicated on Memorial Day 1962. It is built over the remains of the sunken battleship USS Arizona, the final resting place for many of the 1,177 crewmen killed on December 7, 1941, when their s hip was bombed by the Japanese Naval Forces. This loss of life represents nearly half the Americans killed on the "Day of Infamy," the worst Naval disaster in American history. Today, the USS Arizona Memorial is operated by the National Park Service in partnership with the United States Navy.
The USS Arizona Memorial is located in Pearl Harbor, about two miles west of the Honolulu International Airport on the island of Oahu. The visitor center offers interpretive information, a bookstore, a museum, a film and guided boat tour to the USS Arizona Memorial.

I ordered this flag, your people canceled it because they did not have the one I ordered. Then 25 email and 25 phone calls later. These flags where to be flown on the
25th of Jan with a pick up order. After 25 or so phones calls i final got a young lady (Mgr of gift shop) who fixed all of this and went above and beyond. They where flown on date in question and handed to me and certificate where done while waiting. But the stress was so bad. As we where there for our 50th Anniversary and my daughter 43rd birthday and i had needed this done. I ordered early to assure this was being done.
1. If you don't have flags remove from website.
2. If you have a phone number on website, have someone answering it.
3 if you have an email on website make sure someone reply to each email.
Not that hard.
I thought that it was very nice and love adding it to my collection of his? I have a nice complete set of DVD"s along with some nice Colorized Kennedy Half Dollars and he was one of my favorites while I grew up as well.
Great way to remember and honor this ship and her lost crewmembers. Good quality shirt and very comfortable. The silhouette lithograph emblem is a real eyecatcher and I'm enjoying my purchase very much.
This comfortable and well made shirt with the USS Utah silhouette is a great way to honor and display the memory of a mostly overlooked ship. More than happy with this purchase.
I really appreciate this small but powerful reminder of what women and the United States accomplished during WW II. I will wear it more often to more places than my Rosie shirt.
This is a well written account of the attack on Pearl Harbor and this brave sailor's survival and the fate of his shipmates. Should be required reading for all Americans. Definitely illustrates why that generation is labelled the greatest!!
It was an emotional gift for my parents. They loved it and it meant so much to my Dad who is a Navy veteran. The packaging and certificate was fabulous. It made for very unique memory for them.
