It was my privilege to know well 2 Pearl Harbor Survivors. Both have passed on now, and I feel very proud to have had their friendship.
When I was a child, Dave Cole was a friend of my older brother. We attended church together. Then the war hit, and he enlisted in the Navy. In the course of time the Hornet and another ship were sunk, and he survived. He still lives with his one and only wife, and one if the finest men I will ever know.
Proud? You bet I'm proud to have known many who fought in that generation.
