    Pearl Harbor 83rd Commemoration Blackened Canteen Ceremony

    Reverend Eric Matsumoto gives the Japanese-Language benediction as part of the Blackened Canteen Ceremony at the USS Arizona memorial, Dec. 8, 2024. The blackened canteen, which was pulled from the ashes of a crash site of U.S. aircraft in Japan during World War II, is seen as an inspiration for peace. Its blackness and heat-distorted shape represent the inevitability of conflict, yet its presence represents eternal hope for a future of peaceful understanding and reconciliation between former enemies.
