I just found out a few weeks ago that my Father in-law is a Pearl Harbor survivor. He got there on the 5th. and was waiting to be assigned to a ship when it happened. He will not talk about it, but does talk about his time on PT boats and on the USS Honolulu. He has some stories to tell but nothing about Pearl Harbor. He told my brother in-law some and that it was just to horrific to talk about, even today. He is now staying with us, and we don't even tell him the date, as he will just be sad all day. He did go to Pearl for the 50th Reunion for some closure, and I guess it did help, but some wounds never heal.
