Nearly 400 of these sailors, including Bean, were unidentified after the attack and were buried in 46 plots at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, also known as the Punchbowl, in Honolulu, Hawaii. In 2015, as part of the USS Oklahoma Project, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA), through a partnership with the Department of Veterans Affairs, exhumed all of the unknown remains from the USS Oklahoma, and began the lengthy process of identifying the remains. Bean was the 100th identification from the ship’s causalities made by DPAA since 2015.
