    Battleship Missouri Memorial

    The Battleship Missouri Memorial (affectionately known as the "Mighty Mo") sits just a short distance from the USS Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor. Together, they create a powerful historical "bookend": the Arizona represents the beginning of America’s involvement in World War II, while the Missouri represents the exact spot where the war ended.
