Gun turret number three aboard the USS Arizona Memorial protrudes from the waters of Pearl Harbor as USS Port Royal (CG 73) prepares to pass-in-review and render honors to the sunken battleship. A solemn ceremony, hosted by Commander, Navy Region Hawaii, featured Hawaii's senior Senator and Medal of Honor recipient Daniel Inouye as guest speaker. 17 survivors of the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor and their family members joined nearly 200 guests for the ceremony which included a wreath-laying by all branches of the U.S. military. The Governor of Hawaii, the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association, and more than 20 other veteran's groups were also part of the ceremony. The commemoration marks the 61st anniversary of the attack and honors the men and women who lost their lives that day. U. S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 1st Class William R. Goodwin.
