| | USS Arizona National Historic Landmark Nomination |
 | | In the documentation of the United States Naval Base, Pearl Harbor, as a (1965) National Historic Landmark, USS Arizona and the modern (1961) memorial which spans her hulk are merely mentioned, and then not specifically as contributing elements. |
 | | Intact, unsalvaged, and resting in the silt of Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona is a partially frozen moment of time, her death wounds visible and still bleeding oil, and her intact hulk holding most of the battleship's crew. |
 | | Of the vessels raised, all were salvaged and returned to duty with the exception of USS Oklahoma, which sat in drydock through the war, was sold for scrap, and sank while under tow in 1947. |
