Barney Ross Quotes

Destroyers did not have chaplains because they were too small Picture Quote #1
We were very fortunate that the carriers weren’t in the harbor Picture Quote #1
I was 20 years old at Pearl Harbor. I was in the Navy about a year and four months before the war Picture Quote #1
I was standing on the deck of the USS Blue, a destroyer. We were all alone out there at this buoy, tied up Picture Quote #1
We got orders to strike the Marshall and Gilbert Islands. We had a task force with the Enterprise. We had two or three cruisers and probably eight or 10 destroyers Picture Quote #1
Everything was black in the harbor, but there were still some fires burning on the ships Picture Quote #1

The gunner’s mate came up and started breaking the locks on the ammunition. Everything was locked up for fear that someone might go in there with a cigarette or something Picture Quote #1
I had been out there long enough. I had not seen my family for four years Picture Quote #1
I’d get a shell, they weighed about 80 pounds I think, but when I was 19 or 20 that was nothing. I’d take a shell and a bag of powder, I’d put it in the hoist and then I would send it up to the gun Picture Quote #1
It was lucky for me. It wasn’t lucky for the nine people that got killed and the 20 that were injured Picture Quote #1
We managed to get underway, and I don’t know to this day why we didn’t get struck or take a torpedo, but we didn’t. We got outside of the exit of the harbor and we started dropping depth charges Picture Quote #1
