that hole came from this cannon:

A clearcut case of ...NOT Minnesota Nice! On December 7, 1941, the gun was manned by St. Paul reservists on the U.S.S. Ward. A Japanese Midget Submarine was fired upon and subsequently sank. This was the first shot by Americans at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, hours before the attack on Hawaii. The gun displayed is the actual gun and not a replica.

Pearl Harbor survivors make trek to Hawaii for ceremony on 81st anniversary of attack

Quote:

Six centenarian survivors of the attack on Pearl Harbor were among the thousands of attendees at the Hawaii memorial on Wednesday to commemorate the thousands of lives lost 81 years ago.
The ceremony began at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday at the Pearl Harbor National Memorial. An emotional moment occurred 25 minutes later at 7:55 a.m., as over 2,500 people sat in silence in remembrance of the time the attack began on Dec. 7, 1941.

As part of the ceremony, the USS Daniel Inouye passed by the attendees and the USS Arizona Memorial to honor the survivors and the lives lost in the attack. Sailors aboard the guided missile destroyer could be seen along the rails offering a salute as the ship passed.
Ken Stevens, a 100-year-old survivor who was on the USS Whitney the day of the attack, returned the salute.
