That being said, I did hear that the last survivor of the USS Arizona, Lauren Bruner, has their remains interred on the ship itself. We owe our freedom in so many ways to these veterans, and not forgetting the sacrifices that they fought and in many cases died for, both on the battlefield at back at home, along with what they fought to protect. :US-flag:
