MIGHTY MO
I welcome you to visit my website for a tribute to Pearl Harbor, The USS
Arizona, and The Mighty MO. The Missouri was moored in Bremerton WA prior to coming home to Pearl Harbor. We had the honor of saying fairwell to her on her departure, Our boat was featured on front page of regional newspapers.

BLACK TEARS
If you have ever visited the Arizona Memorial and the Mighty Mo you know the
chicken skin that accompanies the visit. If you haven't had the opportunity to
visit it I assure you it is something that will touch you deeply. Every time we
visit Hawaii we pay Tribute to the fallen. My husband being a History Buff, and
teacher absorbs every effort to gain more and more knowledge of this time in
History. Unfortunately the Pearl Harbor Survivors are passing too quickly, and
with them the first hand stories of History relived.
Respectfully and with Patriotism, Lea
