Chester Solon Goodson Officer USN USS West Virginia 1941 |
Chester Solon Goodson was on the ship and had gone to church that morning
of Dec 7. He stood on the dock and watched in horror and agony as his shipmates
perished. He dived and stayed in the water looking for survivors for days, I was
told...he also dived on the Arizona. He was 2nd
Lieutenant....not sure his rank at time of attack, but was Personnel
Officer. Following him, My Dad was Career Navy, and 2 of my kids are currently
enlisted now as well.
