Welcome home shipmate...

Those poor young men on that ship. From what I understand the Oklahoma was due to have a shipwide inspection that day so all the bulkhead doors were open to allow passage of the visiting inspection party. When the attack began the ship was hit with several torpedoes and they weren't able to close all the bulkhead doors and the Oklahoma rolled over(port side, I think). So many sailors were trapped in compartments that flooded. God, how horrible.
