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.

Private Vernon Keaton-- Part 3: Ceremonies To Be Held and Public Graveside Service
An Air Force sergeant will fly to Hawaii and escort the remains home. A ceremony will be held when the remains are placed on the plane there and another one will be held after the plane lands at Will Rogers Airport.
The graveside service will be open to the public.
