BATTLESHIP MISSOURI MEMORIAL COMMEMORATES
64TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE END OF WWII
In honor of all U.S. World War II veterans, the Battleship Missouri Memorial will commemorate the 64th anniversary of the signing of Japan’s formal surrender aboard the USS Missouri (BB-63) with an hour-long ceremony, titled “The End of the War in the Pacific,” featuring keynote speaker Congressman Neil Abercrombie.
The program, which is on Wednesday, September 2, 2009 from 8:00 am - 9:00 am, will coincide with the time of day that representatives from 10 nations signed the formal “Instrument of Surrender,” officially ending history’s most devastating war. The ceremony will feature additional guest speakers, patriotic music and a traditional military salute to those veterans who paid the ultimate sacrifice in defense of freedom. The ceremony is free and open to the public.
Free shuttle bus service from the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum and Park will run between 7 and 8 a.m. The shuttle will also provide return transportation following the ceremony. For more information, call (808) 423-2263 and press 7 immediately following the greeting, toll-free at 1-877-MIGHTYMO (1-877-644-4896).
