I've read about and watched documentaries about the attack on Pearl over the years but heard something on a History channel doc yesterday that I previously did not appreciate. The number of wounded overwhelmed the capacity, so the treatment for many was morphine. Then they ran out of morphine. Damn.

Yes, visiting Pearl Harbor was shockingly more emotional than I would have thought. Highly recommended. Lots of stunning memorabilia in the museum. And then the Arizona, still leaking a small amount of oil to this day. Also interesting was how many Japanese visit there....lots....I guess their history as well.

7 qts a day. My best friend ever was one of the divers studying it.
Those who served and survived have the right to have their ashes interred there. How awesome

Do I remember they fear when the mail bunker oil tank ruptures due to corrosion? Lots more oil to come?
I have been there one time. Definitely moving. I w wonder how more it would be if the superstructure & turrrets had been left intact
