Battleship Oklahoma

Battleship Oklahoma was a U.S. Navy battleship that played a significant role during World War II. Commissioned in 1916, she was based at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. On December 7, 1941, during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Oklahoma was hit by several torpedoes, causing her to capsize. Of the 414 crew members aboard, 429 were killed or missing, marking her as one of the ships with the highest casualties in that attack. Today, she is remembered for her service and sacrifice, with efforts to honor her crew and preserve her memory through memorials and historical accounts.
