Rather than commemorate today’s anniversary in a general, historical-overview way, I thought I’d make it a bit more real. Here are the reminiscences of Adolph Kuhn, who was there.
Makes it more up-close-and-personal, doesn’t it?

The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer. Contents guaranteed to offend the politically correct and anal-retentive from time to time. My approach to life is that it should be taken with a large helping of laughter, and sufficient firepower to keep it tamed!

I've been fortunate enough to visit Pearl Harbor twice and met survivors each time, including two from the Arizona. Knowing that I was standing mere feet from where they swam ashore from the burning horror behind them … it's nearly indescribable. And all they want is to be buried with their friends and shipmates.
This is a date the media should plaster on every website. But, there is silence. PC is going to kill us.
Rev. Paul,
it's not common knowledge that USS Arizona survivors are offered that service.
