  My grandfather was on the USS Tennessee as a Turret Capt. when it was hit in Pearl harbor. He's 94 and still alive, living by himself in California.
  Last year my sisters interviewed him on camera about all his war stories and edited it with some news footage from back then and gave everyone in our family a DVD copy of it.
  He doesn't really like talking about it but we convinced him to do it.

  He's a pretty modest man and hates the fact that the few survivors get together each year. "Why the hell would I want to remember that day, fact is most these men where hiding and crying somewhere while others laid dying" he says.
