One of the top attractions for travelers on Oahu is the USS Arizona
Battleship at Pearl Harbor. On December 7th, 1941, this battleship
was struck ferociously when Japanese Kamakazi planes attacked US
ships at Pearl Harbor. Up to 1,177 lives were lost on this ship
alone. Quickly sinking into the Pacific, the USS Arizona became
one of the few underwater graves in history. Because of shallow
waters at the site of the sunken battleship, pieces of the vessel
can still be seen today. Today, this battleship is a popular memorial
site for the lives lost in the Pearl Harbor attacks. Overtop of
the ship is a white memorial building complete with an entryway,
center viewing room, and shrine room where the names of the deceased
are etched into the marble wall. Read
