The Oklahoma was blocking part of the channel, and a decision was made to raise her. The project began in 1943. She was righted, ,and the bones of the men removed and placed in mass graves in the National Cemetery in "The Punchbowl" in Hawaii.
As many as 22 men in one grave with nothing more than "Unknown" as their marker.
The Oklahoma was placed in Dry-dock number two on 28 December 1943.
She was stripped and sold for scrap at a price of $46,000. She was then going to be towed to
San Francisco.
