190809-N-SH284-0052 PORT ORCHARD, Wash. (Aug. 9, 2019) Sailors assigned to the Naval Base Kitsap Funerals and Honors Division ceremoniously fold flags over the remains of two brothers, Seaman 2nd Class Calvin H. Palmer and Seaman 2nd Class Wilfred D. Palmer, during a repatriation ceremony at Sunset Lane Cemetery. The Palmer brothers perished when their battleship, USS Oklahoma (BB 37), was attacked by Japanese aircraft at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. Their remains went unidentified until they were exhumed for analysis from the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, Hawaii in 2015.
