About Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day

The USS Arizona Memorial over the sunken battleship was dedicated in 1962. Lou Conter, the last of the Arizona's 335 survivors, died in 2024 at 102.

The warning had come almost an hour before the bombs. Radar operators at Opana on Oahu's north shore tracked a large incoming formation from 7:02 a.m., but the duty officer, Lt. Kermit Tyler, believed it was a flight of B-17s from California. The battleship Oklahoma capsized after torpedo hits and lost 429 men. Most were buried as unknowns until DNA work that began in 2015 put names to them. Congress made the anniversary a national day of remembrance in 1994.
