FORT SHAFTER, Hawaii — Regular shuttle boat service to the USS Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor resumed Sunday after several months of preservation work that curtailed access for visitors. 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.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

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!
