Hawaii's USS Arizona Memorial reopens after 15-month repair


HONOLULU (AP) — The USS Arizona Memorial welcomed large numbers of visitors to its reopening after 15 months of repairs, officials said.

The memorial received thousands of sightseers Sunday for the first time since its closure by the National Park Service after its dock was partially submerged and cracks were found in May 2018, Hawaii News Now reported .

“We had to rebuild the system from scratch and do it safely so people can now access it,” said Steve Mietz, acting superintendent for the Pearl Harbor National Memorial.
