In 2000 I went to The Arizona Memorial.  It was a very moving experience.  The Memorial is run by the National Parks Service, and admission is free.  Here are some pictures I took while there.
This is the Memorial as seen from the launch boat.  The memorial is totally surrounded by water.  The only way to get there is by boat.

USS Arizona lies just beneath the surface.  Parts of the ship are visible from the Memorial.

The U.S Flag flies over the memorial.  It is not connected to the ship in any way.  The small flags are for sale at the Memorial store, which can be accessed at the link below.
This chamber is at the far end of the memorial.  The wall has the names of those who died on Dec 7, 1941 aboard USS Arizona.  The names on the short wall below the flag are of survivors who were later interred here with their shipmates.
