We watch a 23-minute documentary film inside the Pearl Harbor Memorial Theater, that includes archival footage from the attack. After watching the film, we take a boat ride around the harbor to visit USS Arizona Memorial. It is the resting place of 1,102 of the 1,177 sailors and marines killed during the Japanese surprise attack.
