From the Pearl Harbor Org.
Werner Klemm mentioned four deaths on the destroyer-tender USS Dobbin that day. Most, according to him, were serving on the gun crew, including his best friend, Roy Arthur Gross from Oak Park, Illinois.
According to the Pearl Harbor Organization, the four:
J.W. BAKER, TM3
HOWARD FREDERICK CARTER, Cox.
ROY ARTHUR GROSS, F1c
ANDREW MICHAEL MARZE GM1c, killed on the USS Pennsylvania.

My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.
