My interpretation of this matter is very different to that of someone acquiring a war trophy from a defeated foe. Whilst theft is theft there is arguably a circumstantial difference that mitigates the question of morality.
In the case of the Arizona silverware the individual was in the employ of the U.S. Navy working on their property & as such his acquisition of the items in question was nothing less than theft.
The passage of time does not diminish what might be considered by many as a serious crime.
War is when your government tells you who the enemy is. Revolution is when you figure it out for yourself.
