Yes RIP. I have an uncle who was a Pearl Harbor survivor as well. His ship was in the harbor and was hit by Japanese bombs. He was awarded a medal for repeatedly going back onto the ship to bring off the injured and put them under overturned shore boats to give some protection from shrapnel.

In just a few years, no Americans will remember that day.
I’m over 70, born four years after D-Day. World War II shaped my world. Every man, it seemed, was a war veteran and our family like most families felt the brunt of that war brutality that scarred our fathers, mothers and children.
I knew survivors of Pearl Harbor and now they are gone but not forgetten.
Rest in peace Ray. Your departed friends are waiting for you with open arms as is your Redeemer
