Haze Grey History
On December 7, 1941, the USS Utah, moored on the other side of Ford Island and hit by torpedoes at the start of the attack, quickly rolled over and sank. The ship was never salvaged and remains where it sank in Pearl Harbor.

The attack on the fleet at Pearl Harbor lasted a little under two hours, but for Utah,
it was over in a few minutes. At 0801, soon after sailors had begun
raising the colors at the ship’s fantail, the erstwhile battleship took a
torpedo hit forward, and immediately started to list to port, then capsized.
