From June 20, 2015, 12 News, Houston "Last known Houston Pearl Harbor survivor dies."
David F. Luck, 95, was a U.S. Marine stationed on the battleship USS Pennsylvania. He was in the mess hall when the attack came and said he didn't have time to be scared.
He grew up in Florida and joined the Civilian Conservation Corps before the Marines. He fired a 50 caliber machine gun at the Japanese that day.

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.
