Remember and Honor our fallen at Pearl Harbor

six additional sailors were similarly rescued from the overturned USS Oklahoma later in the afternoon. On December 8 as the rescue efforts continued, two groups of eleven and thirteen men each were pulled to safety from holes cut in the hull of the Oklahoma. Sadly, when the big battleship was righted, raised and towed into dry dock six months later, the bodies of 20 more sailors were found inside. Scratches on the bulkhead showed that some had survived for two weeks while awaiting the rescuers who were never able to reach them.
