National Parks Service and Pacific Aviation Museum co-hosted the annual act of reconciliation with Dr. Hiroya Sugano on the USS Arizona Memorial on December 6th, 2016. The blackened canteen is a recovered relic from a B-29 bomber that collided with another B-29 over the city of Shizuoka, Japan in 1945. 23 American Airmen were killed. The American dead were buried among the Japanese citizens of Shizuoka who were killed during the bombing raid. At the Memorial, prayers were extended and an offering of peace was displayed by the pouring of whiskey from the canteen into the hallowed waters of Pearl Harbor. (Video Courtesy of Raycom Media)
