About the USS Missouri
Commissioned in 1944, the USS Missouri hosted Japan's formal surrender ceremony in Tokyo Bay on September 2, 1945, ending the Second World War. Nicknamed "Mighty Mo," the battleship went on to serve in the Korean War and the Gulf War before being decommissioned in 1992. It is now preserved as a museum ship at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
