161207-N-YW024-035 PEARL HARBOR (Dec. 7, 2016) Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) is moored at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam to participate in the 75th Anniversary National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day Commemoration ceremony. The 75th commemoration of the attack on Pearl Harbor and Oahu, co-hosted by the U.S. Military, the National Park Service and the State of Hawaii, provided veterans family members, service members and the community a chance to honor the sacrifices made by those who were present Dec. 7, 1941, as well as throughout the Pacific theater.  Since the attacks, the U.S. and Japan have endured more than 70 years of continued peace, a cornerstone of security and prosperity in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. As a Pacific nation, the U.S. is committed to continue its responsibility of protecting the Pacific sea-lanes, advancing international ideals and relationships, well as delivering security, influence and responsiveness in the region.
