Elvis and the USS Arizona (2021)

Elvis Presley's connection to the USS Arizona Memorial is rooted in a historic 1961 benefit concert in Hawaii. The concert aimed to raise funds for the memorial honoring the lives lost during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Elvis, at the height of his fame, performed for free, leveraging his celebrity to support the cause. This contributed significantly to the establishment of the USS Arizona Memorial, symbolizing the enduring impact of music in fostering remembrance and honoring the nation's history.
