The memorial was renovated to provide easier public access. USS Utah was sunk during the surprise Japanese attacks on Pearl Harbor Dec. 7, 1941. The day after the attack, before a joint session of Congress, President Franklin D. Roosevelt asked for a declaration of war against Japan and the U.S. officially entered World War II.
