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.

Home On Furlough From Pearl Harbor After the Attack


From the March 6, 2017, Roanoke (Va.) Times  "Looking Back."

1942, 75 Years Ago.

"Although the ship which he was aboard was the first United States vessel attacked by Japanese bombs on the morning of December 7 at Pearl Harbor, James Sisson, ... now home on furlough, said yesterday no one in the ship was injured."

Unfortunately, they didn't mention what ship he was on.  I didn't find out any other information on him either.
