Thank you for this wonderful site that pays tribute to these men and keeps their story alive. Winston Arnold, my uncle, was killed before I was born in the kamikaze attack on 3/31/45. His sister is 89 years old and lives in Northern California. If anyone has memories of Winston they would like to share, we would be very grateful.

Hi Judy,
I posted a photo of Winston's cross in Okinawa on FindAGrave. It was taken by my grandfather. You can see Winston's name on the cross.
Hi, Doug, Thank you so much for posting that picture. How observant of you to see his name in the forefront. I showed it to his sister who is 91. It also led me to the picture someone recently posted of Winston's current grave at Glen Haven in So. Calif. which we were happy to see is being kept up. We live in No. Calif. and have not been down there for many years. Thank you again!

Hello Judy,
My name is Steve Savage and I am associated with the Survivors Org. and it would be a pleasure to speak with you. I am trying to find photographs of all nine of the men KIA on March 31,1945. If you have a photo of Winston in his Navy uniform, I would love to let everyone see it at the reunion this August. Please contact me if you are able. www.savrph7@aol.com
