Summary

161203-N-ZK021-010 HONOLULU (Dec. 3, 2016) A plane carrying more than 100 World War II veterans, including Pearl Harbor survivors, receives a water salute as it arrives at Honolulu International Airport. The more than 100 WWII veterans arrived in Honolulu to participate in the remembrance events throughout the week to honor the courage and sacrifices of those who served during Dec. 7, 1941, and throughout the Pacific Theater. Dec. 7, 2016, marks the 75th anniversary of the attacks on Pearl Harbor and Oahu. As a Pacific nation, the U.S. is committed to continue its responsibility of protecting the Pacific sea-lanes, advancing international ideals and relationships, well as delivering security, influence, and responsiveness in the region.
