Lest We Forget ...

The United States Navy commissioned the Battleship USS Arizona on October 17th, 1916, and decommissioned her on December 29th, 1941. On December 7th, 1941, 75 years ago today, she sank at her berth in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. She was irrepairably damaged when a bomb from a Japanese plane detonated in her forward magazine. She still lies submerged on the bottom - the final resting place for many of her crew. I found this image on Wikipedia listed as public domain.
