Lou Conter, Last Surviving Crew Member of USS Arizona Dies at Age 102

From April 1, 2024, KRA 3 NBC, Sacramento, Ca., News.

Lou Conter, the last living surviving member on board the USS Arizona during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, has died.  He was 102.

He had been in hospice the last four weeks and was surrounded by family in Grass Valley, California.

To me it is another in the passing of the Greatest Generation.  Not too long ago, we lost the last surviving member of Doolittle's Raid.

I knew this was coming, but it sure doesn't make it any easier.
