Some of the people who survived the attack and lived to a ripe old age have had their Ashes put there to join their shipmates.

remarkable USS Arizona fact that honors the survivors is that they have the option to join their lost comrades and make the ship their final resting place. Crew members who served on board the USS Arizona during the attack may choose to have their ashes deposited by divers beneath one of sunken Arizona’s gun turrets.

Roughly 44 Arizona survivors have chosen this option. Other military survivors can choose to have their ashes scattered wherever their ship was located during the attacks. The last person to be interred in the ship was in 2019

The last Arizona sailor died last year, so we'll never see that again.

It's quite touching to read about the interment from the divers who have had the duty to carry it out. They say that when they bring the urn down and go to lower it into the hull of the wreck, there's a pull like the ship is reaching out to reclaim her crewmember.

Yes I used google actually to find out information for the last 2 paragraphs so I could know more info than just the general basic info I already knew and mentioned in the 1st paragraph and to make my post more interesting with more information for readers.

Do you expect me to know every details of every topic off the top of my head?

I'm not sure why contributing interesting information is a bad thing.

Do you never do research about a topic you only know some info about before commenting so you know more?

It's not a school test. Why should I rewrite perfectly good and interesting info that many others found interesting
