I haven't forgotten. Busy, but not forgotten. Amazing what they went through back then. Shy was only a couple years old :)

Most are 80 years on up that still really remember it first hand.

"Shy was only a couple years old :) ".. :) Just beginning to be a gleam in the old man's eye, ya stinker.. :)

When the Ben Affleck/Kate Beckinsale movie PEARL HARBOR came out a few years ago, half the first showing (they had to get there for the afternoon so they'd be awake :)) was full of survivors all wearing their various ship inscribed baseball caps.. It was amazing.
