In 1941, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Navy divers raised every battleship that was sunk at Pearl Harbor, to the surface (with the exception of the U.S.S. Arizona, U.S.S. Utah, and the U.S.S. Oklahoma).

The raised ships were repaired and sent back out to fight the Imperial Japanese Navy.

recognizes the sacrifices of those who have volunteered as military divers for their bravery; and
