Had a Uncle on the USS Maryland at Pearl(they go hit but not bad). He didn't talk about it too much till I joined the Navy then 30 years of whatever came out. Cried when he talked about the top of the Arizonia blowing apart.
My Dad ended up at Pearl about a year after Dec 7. He was lucky and never saw any combat but was willing and ready to go. The place was still a mess as he remembered it.
Yep it was a great generation. Then again we ain't too bad either but not quite as good.
