    Pearl Harbor 83rd Commemoration Blackened Canteen Ceremony

    Aileen Utterdyke, CEO of Pacific Historic Parks, and Pearl Harbor National Memorial Superintendent Tom Leatherman pour bourbon whiskey from the Blackened Canteen 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.
