Continued Friendship
An audience consisting of veterans and spectators from the United States and Japan attend a Blackened Canteen ceremony as part of the 74th anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day Commemoration Anniversary at the USS Arizona Memorial, Hawaii, Dec. 6, 2015. The Blackened Canteen ceremony is a way for Americans and Japanese veterans and observers to extend a hand of continued friendship, peace and reconciliation by pouring bourbon whiskey as an offering to the fallen in the hallowed waters of Pearl Harbor.
