severed mainmast of the sunken battleship. The USS Arizona Memorial has come to commemorate all military personnel killed in the Pearl Harbor attack.

battleship and consists of three main sections: the entry room; the
assembly room, a central area designed for ceremonies and general
observation; and the shrine room, where the names of those killed on the
Arizona are engraved on the marble wall.
