181206-N-BR087-1171 Pearl Harbor (Dec. 6, 2018)
Daniel Martinez, National Park Service Chief Historian, (Right) and Hiroya Sugano, M.D. (Left) pour bourbon whiskey into the waters to pay their respects to the lost service members during the 'Blackened Canteen' ceremony at the USS Arizona Memorial. The blackened canteen, which was pulled from the ashes during World War II, is seen as an inspiration for peace. Its blackness and heat-distorted shape represent the inevitability of conflict, yet its presence represents eternal hope for a future of peaceful understanding and reconciliation between former enemies.
