| Whit Criswell Bryan 1920 - 2001 |
My father, Whit Criswell Bryan, a 20 year old pharmacist
mate, was stationed at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. He had transferred
from the U.S.S Aragonne to The Mobile Naval Hospital No. 2 on December 1,
1941.
When the attack
on Pearl Harbor began, Dad said that he was delivering newspapers for a friend
who had a paper route. He had driven a friend’s car and was at a top of a hill
when he saw the planes coming in; first thinking that they were US planes. When
the bombing occurred, he left the car and ran back to the Mobile Hospital. He
told my brother that, from the hill, he could see down into the cockpits of the
Japanese planes.
