One shoulder will have the patch of the 47th Pursuit Squadron which was stationed at Pearl Harbor. On the other there will be a 48-star flag (Arizona was the 48th state admitted to the Union and, of course, it was the 48-star flag that flew in Pearl Harbor that day.
The University of Arizona's football team helmets will feature a red block "A" that is based on a photo of the USS Arizona's football team. Also, there will be a 12-7-41 date where the helmet and face guard meet. there is also a helmet logo of the Arizona's ship's bell.
All jerseys will say USS Arizona on the front and BB-39 on the back where the names would be.
A Fitting Honor. --GreGen
The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
