USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor closed indefinitely

This is the place for those men and women who have given of themselves in military service to our country. Feel free to discuss anything as it relates to prior (or current) service... and we all thank you for your service!

I'm going there later this year and if he can't/won't, I will. How much do you want?

One of the small water bottles would be more than enough. I am going to transfer it to a glass bottle for display, i hope to find someone who can etch glass as I would like to get the id number etched to it. I would be ecstatic if it was close enough to have some of the oil in it. Thank you for the offer, No known family at Bealleu wood or Iwo but as a Marine obviously those two places have meaning, having a family member still inside Arizona makes that important. I wish I could recall his name. My grandmother used to tell stories about him unfortunately I was too young to care enough to remember the important parts.
