Retired U.S. Marine Staff Sgt. Robert A. Henderson, 95, a Pearl Harbor survivor, tells Clemson University student Will Hines his story for an undergraduate research project called the Veterans Project, Feb. 21, 2015. Hines interviews veterans for the project, and then sends the tapes to the Library of Congress to be preserved forever. "The first plane flew so close to me I could have thrown a rock and hit it," said Henderson. He went on to serve the duration of WWII, culminating at the Battle of Okinawa. "I was in the first and last battles of the war." (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Ken Scar)
