    Pearl Harbor survivors: the men of ’41 By LON WAGNER, The Virginian-Pilot
    The group still has 63 members. Some can’t make it to the meetings at all, others can’t drive and need a son or daughter to give them a ride.

    Those who can attend understand a touching irony: Each time the group shrinks, those left behind become even more important to each other. A death means one less person who understands what happened 62 years ago today, one less to tell the story to those who weren’t there.
