In this photo of the keel being laid in 1914 for USS Arizona, the little boy holding Assistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin D. Roosevelt's hand is Henry Williams, Jr.

Roosevelt would later become President and in 1941, Lt. Henry Williams would be at Pearl Harbor and would watch the Arizona explode. He is the only known person who was present at the beginning and at the end of the USS Arizona. #PearlHarbor84

THIS DAY IN HISTORY:

Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty Is Signed (1987)
Signed by US President Ronald Reagan and USSR General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty represented a historic shift in superpower relations. The first treaty to mandate a reduction in stockpiled weapons rather than just a limit on them, it required the destruction of 1,752 Soviet and 859 US missiles.
