ART GRUBER, First Class Water Tender on USS Tennessee, the only battleship not sunk that day, was at the ceremony in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, at the anchor of the USS Oklahoma. KFOR News 4, OKC.
ARTHUR DUNN, 86, Pearl Harbor Survivor, was a turret gunner on the USS Oklahoma and remembers scrambling to his post when the first torpedo hit and then the ship starting to turn over. He found it hard to talk about the event for 45 years.
Now Dunn is president of the Wichita Chapter of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association which only had ten to twelve members. The Kansas City chapter folded.
December 7th Wichita Eagle.
