Pearl Harbor Survivors Story-- Part 2: Supposed Japanese Landing on Oahu

When Steve Warren and a friend came back up above deck, a bullet hit right in front of him, "It must have been a spent bullet, or about spent, and it just hit the deck.  I picked it up for some crazy reason, I don't know why, and put it in my pocket."  (A nice souvenir.)

Warren began helping fight the Japanese.  he brought ammunition up.  Word spread around that the Japanese had landed on Oahu.  He had no weapon to fight this new threat, but he and others were  loaded on a truck and went speeding off to where they thought the landing was.  Of course, there was no landing.

Later he helped with the wounded where he laid the men out in rows.

He also kept that spent bullet that landed on the deck of the YP-109 that day.  It is now in a glass case at Warren's home.
