The bonds between the crew members of Arizona have lasted far beyond the ship’s loss on December 7th. Since 1982, the U.S. Navy has allowed survivors of USS Arizona to be interred in the ship’s wreckage upon their deaths. Following a full military funeral at the Arizona memorial, the cremated remains are placed in an urn and then deposited by divers beneath one of the Arizona’s gun turrets. In this moving tribute using archival footage, aerial drones, and contemporary interviews, we follow Ray Haerry’s family as they bring him home to rejoin more than 1,000 of his shipmates who lost their lives on that fateful day.
