From May 22, 2016 "Missouri sailor killed at Pearl Harbor laid to rest."
Navy Chief Herbert Moore was aboard the USS Oklahoma that fateful day and his remains unidentified until recently. Now they have been identified and his remains arrived in St. Louis on Friday.

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.
