By WYATT OLSON STARS AND STRIPES •

Shuttle boats are moving to and from the memorial every 15 minutes between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. daily, Pacific Historic Parks said in a news release Friday. Pacific Historic Parks is the official nonprofit partner of the National Park Service at Pearl Harbor National Memorial.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

It is inspiring to be there and see that the Arizona is still bleeding oil after all these years and to know all the sailors killed there, or buried there, are still keeping watch. 999999999999

I've been aboard the Memorial more than once.  My son was impressed the first flag you see on the Memorial is the Arizona flag.  I told him he was likely the only person there that was actually born in Arizona!
