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.

Quincy Pearl Harbor Survivor Says People Shouldn't Forget
From the December 7, 2017, Patriot Ledger (Mass.) "People shouldn't forget says Quincy survivor of Pearl Harbor" by Zane Razzaq.
Bill Keith, 95, is among the last Pearl Harbor survivors in the state of Massachusetts. One Dec. 7, 1941, he was a 19-year-old on the USS West Virginia. he managed to escape his sinking ship when sailors managed to open a hatch.
He was supposed to spend the day relaxing, but didn't get much of it.
After the attack, he attended corpsman school in South Dakota.
