| Battleship Missouri Memorial |
| No one could have predicted how a casual get-together with friends would change the way Pearl Harbor is experienced today. It was 1994 and the revered "Mighty Mo" had been recently removed from service and "mothballed" in Bremerton, Washington - secluded from the public. When World War II Navy Commander Edwin Carter, USNR, (Ret.) sat down with retired Admiral Ron Hays and retired Navy Boatswains Mate Harold Estes for lunch in early 1994, they discussed the battleship and how she deserved a place where she could share her lessons of peace, honor and glory. The three agreed, "Why not Pearl Harbor?" |
