"I still keep in contact with the men on my ship.  I've even attended three reunions in Pearl Harbor, which they hold every five years.  Each time we meet, our stories grow taller and taller, but it's still good to get together and recall an experience that changed our world.  It's good to remember there's a price we pay to be free."

"I looked up towards the sky and saw a V-formation of airplanes approaching me and dropping their bombs. It was at that moment that I understood the true meaning of the word 'scared.'... I prayed to my God that if I were hit, let it hit me square so that I would not suffer. Then I wondered what my mother would say when she received the word of my death."

Mr. McGoran became such a special part of my life and it has truly been my honor and
privilege to have known him.

Rest in Peace, Mr. McGoran.
I will miss you and your stories!
