Thanks for remembering.

In an airport lobby a couple of years ago, I saw an elderly man
wearing a USS Oklahoma ball cap. He was traveling with a younger
couple, and at one point I asked them if he was on the USS Oklahoma
during WW2. Turned out the young lady was his daughter, and he was a
Pearl Harbor vet who was rescued from the hulk of the USS Oklahoma. He
told me a little about his experiences. It's important to listen to
and to honor those men.

Hats off to those who defended Pearl and those who have served since.
