NAVY VIDEO ON SIGNING

I welcome you to visit my website for a tribute to Pearl Harbor, The USS Arizona, and The Mighty MO. The Missouri was moored in Bremerton WA prior to coming home to Pearl Harbor. We had the honor of saying fairwell to her on her departure, Our boat was featured on front page of regional newspapers. PEARL HARBOR, ARIZONA SLIDE SHOW GO TO

>Additional Slideshow on Ford Island, the Mighty MO, and The Arizona GO TO

If you have ever visited the Arizona Memorial and the Mighty Mo you know the chicken skin that accompanies the visit. If you haven't had the opportunity to visit it I assure you it is something that will touch you deeply. Every time we
visit Hawaii we pay Tribute to the fallen. My husband being a History Buff, and teacher absorbs every effort to gain more and more knowledge of this time in History. Unfortunately the Pearl Harbor Survivors are passing too quickly, and with them the first hand stories of History relived.
