Itinerary and highlights
The USS Arizona Memorial, located within the Pearl Harbor National Memorial in Honolulu, Oahu, is the final resting place for many of the 1,177 crewmen who lost their lives during the attack on December 7, 1941.
The Battleship Missouri Memorial (affectionately known as the "Mighty Mo") sits just a short distance from the USS Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor. Together, they create a powerful historical "bookend": the Arizona represents the beginning of America’s involvement in World War II, while the Missouri represents the exact spot where the war ended.
