The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Follow Up on the Lake County, California, Pearl Harbor Survivors: Just One Remains

Earlier today, I mentioned that as of the death of Walter Urmann March 25, 2012, there were still three Pearl Harbor survivors alive in this county.

Just one of the three was still alive as of December 6, 2013.

CLARENCE "BUD" BONER died Nov. 21, 2012, at age 90.

HENRY ANDERSON died Jan. 6, 2014, at age 95.

BILL SLATER was still alive at the 2013 Pearl Harbor anniversary commemoration.
