Guns From the USS Arizona Going Home?-- Part 1

From the Feb. 6, 2012, Arizonan.

The Arizona Capitol Museum has a popular exhibit of USS Arizona artifacts. Now, the Secretary of State, Ken Bennett, is leading an effort to bring the big 16-inch guns of the USS Arizona and USS Missouri to Arizona. This would represent the beginning and end of World War II for the United States.

He heard that the big guns were going to be sold for scrap. If the attempt to get the guns is successful, they will be put on display at the Wesley Bloin Memorial Plaza, one block east of the Capitol building. (Now we know the effort was successful and the guns are soon to be open to the public.)
