Great Article. I remember rendering honors to that great ship and it's crew in about 1973 while I was aboard the USS Truxton DLGN-35. We were on our way to our WestPac.

The picture of the band members just a few hours before they all were killed is particularly haunting.

Check out this film; "Here Comes the Navy", from 1934, with James Cagney. The battleship scenes were filmed on the USS Arizona...

I've had a few humbling experiences in life. One of them was standing on the USS Arizona Memorial.
