A remembrance ceremony will be held Wednesday at the USS Utah Memorial on Ford Island from 5 to 6 p.m.

On Saturday, the National Memorial will partner with the National Park Service Submerged Resource Center to do a “virtual interactive live dive” of the USS Arizona with divers from the NPS supported and accompanied by the Navy’s Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit One. The dive will be livestreamed and available for viewing in the theater at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center from noon to 1 p.m.
