The Arizona memorial at the Capitol museum in Phoenix.

We visited the Arizona Capitol recently, there’s some really cool stuff to see there. If you’re ever in the Phoenix area and have a few hours to spend, I recommend it. The USS Arizona memorial is a must see.

These 2 gun barrels are from the USS Arizona and USS Missouri, they're bigger than they look in the photo. The flag mast is from the Arizona.

Very cool.

My initial reaction was WTF? Then I read...

• Artifacts at the Capitol Museum:
  .
  The gun, mast, and anchor displayed at the Arizona Capitol Museum in Phoenix were salvaged from the USS Arizona before the Pearl Harbor attack.

The Arizona Historical Museum in Tempe on the East side of Papago Park has some interesting stuff as well if you're looking for somewhere to spend a couple hours out of the heat.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I have a relative that I was named after that was onboard the USS Arizona and died during the attack at Pearl Harbor. He was my dad's favorite uncle.

I’m not an overly emotional guy but I had serious problems floating past the memorials in Pearl Harbor.
