Musician 2nd Class Andrew Gushiken performs Taps 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.
