As a member of his immediate family, you are entitled to his complete service record. You can get this through the National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis. I have linked their web site below. As for a list of all the names aboard a specific ship - unless you can find a veterans organization involving that ship (many many ships have these types of organizations for shipmates to stay in contact after their service) - you may be out of luck finding it. I wish you the best - Good Luck.

Charlie was the enemy. He was given many names. The North Vietamese army was called NVA, hence Nathaniel Victor, or Mr. Nathaniel Victor. Also the guirella solder's were considered Viet Cong. Hence VC, or Victor Charlie. The US Military uses a phonetic alphabet to downplay confusion while spelling. \nAlpha for A, Bravo for B, Charlie for C, Delta for D, and so on.

Lend lease act with the British and convoys.  Gearing up industry to supply the British, selling destroyers to the british, having americans on the convoys helped create sentiment if the ships were sunk.  The Flying Tigers in China, though officially and in reality a volunteer group.  It is said, that Chennault was assigned this mission.  The Americans had broken the Japanese main code and had not disclosed it publicly.  The government was aware something was coming.  The British on the other hand had gotten a hold of a german enigma decoding box and was holding the sailors from the German sub that was capture in America.  So, for months the government or the military was aware that war was coming, they did not know when.  And they were aware the most likely place would have been Pearl Harbor but, again they did not warn the commander of the information.  There has been speculation that when the US reduced trade to Japan that it forced Japan economically to start the war.  That is probably true.  The US had cutoff oil and steel to Japan.  \n\nThe second reference below, it is actually very true what he wrote.  All that has been written is true.  \n\nGood luck.

I agree with the other poster. Why would a SSG not know this? Or at least know where to find the info? I am a retired SSG, and, man, you're making us NCO's look bad.

Legend: This Legend of how "Kilroy was here" starts is with James J. Kilroy, a shipyard inspector during WWII. He chalked the words on bulkheads to show that he had been there and inspected the riveting in the newly constructed ship. To the troops in those ships, however, it was a complete mystery — all they knew for sure was that he had "been there first." As a joke, they began placing the graffiti wherever they (the US forces) landed or went, claiming it was already there when they arrived.\n\nKilroy became the US super-GI who always got there first — wherever GI's went. It became a challenge to place the logo in the most unlikely places. It was said to be atop Mt. Everest, the Statue of Liberty, the underside of the Arch de Triumphe, and scrawled in the dust on the moon. An outhouse was built for the exclusive use of Truman, Stalin, and Churchill who were there for the Potsdam conference. The first person to use it was Stalin. He emerged and asked his aide (in Russian), "Who is Kilroy?"\n\nWWII UDT (Under Water Demolition - later Navy Seals) divers swam ashore on Japanese held islands in the Pacific to prepare the beaches for the coming landings by US troops. They were sure to be the first GIs there! On more than one occasion, they reported seeing "Kilroy was here" scrawled on make shift signs or as graffiti on enemy pillboxes. They, in turn, often left similar signs for the next incoming GIs.\n\nThe tradition continued in every US military theater of operations throughout and following WWII.\n\nIn 1946 the Transit Company of America held a contest offering a prize of a real trolley car to the person who could prove himself to be the "real" Kilroy. Almost forty men stepped forward to make that claim, but James Kilroy brought along officials from the shipyard and some of the riveters to help prove his authenticity. James Kilroy won the prize of the trolley car which he gave it to his nine children as a Christmas gift and set it up in their front yard for a playhouse.

Your report should include the fact that the three most important ships in the U.S. Pacific fleet at the time, the air craft carriers, were all luckily out at sea at the time of the attack. A mere coincidence? I don't think so.
