I passed through Pearl several time while on the USS Coral Sea on our way to VietNam in the late 60's. Very moving to see the USS Arizona from the flight deck as we passed by. We always lined the rail when entering the harbor and gave a salute to the memory of the men still on the ship. Thirty years later I was again in Pearl working for JICPAC, which over looks Ford Island from the East. I can never can keep my eyes dry when I see that location.

<Salute>

May their memory never fade.
