Pearl Harbor survivors mark 69th anniversary in Hawaii
About 120 Pearl Harbor veterans gathered in Honolulu to honor the attack's memory and its lasting lessons. They recalled combat experiences aboard ships like the USS Maryland and the USS Arizona, as jets conducted a missing man formation above Pearl Harbor. They toured a new $56 million visitor center and heard officials affirm the vow to preserve the fallen and their stories for future generations.
