JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM, Hawaii — A U.S. Navy Supervisor of Salvage and Diving (SUPSALV) worker oversees the removal of a bollard from a USS Arizona mooring platform, Sept. 9, 2025. Members of U.S. Navy’s Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit 1, advised by SUPSALV and supported by locally contracted salvors, are extracting two World War II-era mooring platforms from the USS Arizona hull to help preserve the ship. In the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Navy installed these mooring platforms to aid in the salvaging of the Pennsylvania-class battleship’s ammunition and armament for reutilization in the ongoing war effort.
