161207-N-YW024-250 PEARL HARBOR (Dec. 7, 2016) Chief of Naval Operations Adm. John Richardson, and wife, pay respect to honor fallen service members during the attacks on Pearl Harbor and Oahu at a floral tribute aboard the USS Arizona Memorial following the conclusion of the 75th Commemoration Event of the attacks on Pearl Harbor and Oahu. The 75th commemoration of the attack on Pearl Harbor and Oahu, co-hosted by the U.S. Military, the National Park Service and the State of Hawaii, provided veterans family members, service members and the community a chance to honor the sacrifices made by those who were present Dec. 7, 1941, as well as throughout the Pacific theater. Since the attacks, the U.S. and Japan have endured more than 70 years of continued peace, a cornerstone of security and prosperity in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. As a Pacific nation, the U.S. is committed to continue its responsibility of protecting the Pacific sea-lanes, advancing international ideals and relationships, well as delivering security, influence and responsiveness in the region.
