Arizona Memorial
Names. First and middle initial, then last name.
The USS Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor in Honolulu, Hawaii, symbolizes 1102 of the 1177 sailors and marines killed on the boat during the time the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. This attack is what caused the US to join World War II. When you get off the boat and walk onto the memorial, you feel sadness creep into the air around you. You look around and notice everyone is quiet. Everybody is looking at the many names on the wall. People pay respect to their loved ones. You search for names you know and stumble across a few. Then you see a line starting to form outside the boat. You get in the line and take the boat back to the museum.
Here are some photos of the Arizona Memorial:
