Pearl Harbor 68th anniversary

Last year, I posted a note on the 67th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack.

This year, I was able to visit Pearl Harbor just before the anniversary (7 Dec Hawaiian time, 8 Dec Japanese time). You can see the air traffic control tower at Ford Island, preserved as a monument from the attack. Ford Island is still being used by the US military, though the immediate area around the tower is now a museum (Pacific Aviation Museum) showcasing World War 2.
