  My grandfather was one of the men that survived the attack on the Arizona and fought the rest of the war. &nbsp;When he passed away, his wish was to rejoin his fellow sailors, so his ashes were taken down by divers. &nbsp;It was a great and sad ceremony but something that will stay with me for the rest of my life. &nbsp;Thank you for making this video.

  My grandfather served aboard the USS Tennessee at Pearl Harbor, the ship anchored just in front of the Arizona. He said that he arrived at his battle station just as the Arizona was hit and that when she exploded, for just a brief moment, her keel came so far out of the water that he could see the bottom of her hull before she slammed back down. God bless and God rest all the brave men who died in the sinking, and to all those who fought for our country in World War 2.<br><br>Edit: Grammar correction.

  I have been on smaler exhibition ships. And it&apos;s crazy to imagine that there are so many people working in such a cramped space.

  This man is the definition of quality over quantity.

  Jared casually returning after 2 months with dope commentary is a blessing, the quality over quantity is on point

  I spent some years growing up on Kauai. One trip I remember vividly was an 8th grade band trio to play on Oahu. While there we visited the Pearl Harbor Museum and the USS Arizona Memorial. As the boat pulled up to the memorial and we disembarked, I remember the feeling in the air; it’s hard to put into words exactly what it was, maybe a feeling of sacrifice or death, but also one of triumph. I was surprised how this silence fell over all my classmates (had to be about 50 or more of us that made it over on that boat). Everyone went from being immature and silly to respectful of where we were when we stepped aboard the memorial. It was crazy. Brought tears to my eyes to see the oil slicks rising in the water, with all the names of those who gave all on a wall. Really starts to pull you towards the gravity of what occurred on that day. I was proud to see that what brought us into the war (Pearl Harbor/ USS Arizona) and the battleship where we triumphantly ended it (USS Missouri/Mighty Mo) are parked bow to bow. It’s as if bringing back the head of the snake who killed a family member to say, “don’t worry, we got ‘em Joey”, in their remembrance. May all those who tragically lost their lives on that day rest in eternal peace. All gave some, while some gave all.

  Great work on modeling and animating such a complex ship. &nbsp;I appreciate how you integrate the history and present into the story of Pearl Harbor.

  I just visited the memorial yesterday. I love how the rangers brief you ahead of time. They tell you that this is not a tourist attraction, it’s a war grave and you are expected to show these men the respect that they deserve.

  I got to go to Pearl Harbor last year, which included going to the Arizona Memorial. I can’t describe how it felt being there and seeing everything. It was incredibly quiet, only broken by very quiet whispering. The people who work there are adamant about all visitors showing the highest level of respect. <br>You do a really good job explaining how you can go visit the Arizona Memorial, where you start, how to get there, etc.
