Mapping the Depths of Pearl Harbor

July 24, 2018 ·

What’s the best method of exploring the waters of Pearl Harbor to see what may lie below the surface?

Instead, a team of US Navy Seabee Divers and the Navy’s Fleet Survey Team […]

July 03, 2018 ·

People in Hawaii are known for their love of fireworks. Any holiday is an excuse for a good pyrotechnic show.

Remembering Pearl Harbor - 76 Years Later

DNA Identification and the Men of the Oklahoma

October 24, 2017 ·

For more than seven decades, the families of many of the 429 men who perished when the USS Oklahoma (BB-37) sank were unable to give their loved ones a proper burial, since their remains were unidentified, lying in mass graves at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Punchbowl Crater on the island of […]

The USS Missouri: Still Serving the Nation

September 15, 2017 ·

One ship moored near the Pearl Harbor memorials dedicated to the December 7th, 1941 attack might seem out of place.

After fighting in the last year of the war […]
