Ens. Tom Anderson's Pearl Harbor Colt..
Ens Tom Anderson was the OOD of the USS UTAH on Dec 7, 1941. He had just assumed the watch at 0800, when the first torpedo struck the ship at 0805. He was wearing this rig at the time. He survived the attack and was assigned to the 14Th Naval District Sampan Group on Dec 26, 1941 and kept the whole rig throughout the war.. I spoke to him personally while he was in a nursing home in Snohomish, WA before his death.... Look up the 14TH Naval District Sampan Group on the INTERNET. It was very interesting...
