I Was 20 Years Old At Pearl

The Gunner's Mate Came Up And Started Breaking The Locks On The Ammunition. Everything Was Locked Up For Fear That Someone Might Go In There With A Cigarette Or Something.

After The Atomic Bombs Were Dropped, The War Ended And We Went Into Tokyo Bay With The Rest Of The Fleet, The Missouri And The Rest Of Them, While They Signed The Terms Of Surrender That Ended The War.

I Was Standing On The Deck Of The Uss Blue, A Destroyer. We Were All Alone Out There At This Buoy, Tied Up.

All We Had Aboard The Ship That Morning Was One Annapolis Graduate And Three Reserves.

Everything Was Black In The Harbor, But There Were Still Some Fires Burning On The Ships.
