Immediately after the Pearl Harbor Remembrance Ceremony, you are invited to join others for a no-host lunch on board the USS Stewart located on the museum grounds.  We will have a private dining area so that attending Companions and our guests, the Sons and Daughters of Pearl Harbor Survivors, will have an opportunity to meet, greet, and visit. There is limited seating for about 40 people, so this a reservation-only luncheon on a first come, first serve basis.  The lunch will be buffet-style, consisting of the following items, catered by Soul2Soul Café of Galveston:
