I was there back in Feb. I took the boat out to the Arizona. Very Humbling....To see all of those names on the wall inside the Memorial, and to know that there are still a few of the Veterans that were there that are still being interned there when they pass is amazing to me.
I bought an American Flag that had flown over the USS Arizona Memorial And I flew it this December 7th off my flag pole at home. I took it down at Sunset.
I also have a Flag that flew aboard the USS Missouri. (Mighty Mo) Yes, even though it was not in Pearl Harbor that day.

I thought it sad today that I heard more on the news about John Lennon being killed than I did on the 7th about Pearl Harbor. Oh well, I guess.....

God bless those men and women, and God bless this great country of ours.

Our Flag above the USS Arizona Memorial. May it wave free forever.
