"The Punchbowl is the final resting place for many lost at Iwo."
It's a beautiful cemetary. When I was stationed at Kaneohoe Bay I had went out there on a number of Sundays to walk around and view. Anyone taking a vacation to Hawaii, while on Oahu, it is definitely worth a trip up to the Punchbowl national cemetary. Its kind of like the Arlington of the Pacific.

We visited Honolulu in March.
Saw Pearl Harbor (the Missouri, Arizona Memorial, bowfin/submarine memorial) but didn’t get to the Punchbowl.

I’ve always wanted to go, haven’t made it yet.
