Enter a personal reminiscence or story.
My grandmother was serving as an U.S. Army nurse on Oahu when Pearl Harbor was attacked. The story from a cousin who knew Evelyn stated that Evelyn told her that she was just getting off a late night shift when the attack began and she ran back to the hospital after seeing a Japanese aircraft buzz by so closely to her that she could see the pilot grinning at her. Evelyn did not leave or change her uniform for a week after the attack.

Evelyn left the army later and was an alcoholic. Her last job was driving a taxi in Honolulu.
