Sailors assigned to Navy Region Hawaii and the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) conduct a funeral for U.S. Navy Water Tender 1st Class Charles E. Hudson of Stockton, Calif., at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, Honolulu, Hawaii, Sept. 10, 2021. Hudson was assigned to the USS Oklahoma which sustained fire from Japanese aircraft and multiple torpedo hits causing the ship to capsize and resulted in the deaths of more than 400 crew members on Dec. 7, 1941, at Ford Island, Pearl Harbor. Hudson was recently identified through DNA analysis by the DPAA forensic laboratory and laid to rest with full military honors. DPAA’s mission is to achieve the fullest possible accounting for missing and unaccounted-for U.S. personnel to their families and our nation. (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Michael O'Neal)
