Follow-up on my last post. My Uncle on my Dad's side was at Pearl Harbor on that fateful day. He was on the USS Raleigh CL-7 when the first wave of Zeros arrived. The first torpedo hit the Utah and the next one hit the Raleigh-It began to list bad and according to the ships log my Uncle and a Ensign were credited with preventing it from capsizing. The 3rd paragraph mentions RC Tellin-Raymond Carl Tellin. My middle name is Raymond and we named our Son Raymond to honor him....He was in the Navy for 30 years--started as an enlisted man and worked his way up through the ranks to retire as a full bird Captain. Retired after 30 and lived in Florida he lost his Wife and then came back to Iowa to marry his pre-Navy sweetheart. Is buried here in Iowa--I am PROUD to continue his name---Tee Pictures of Uncle Ray through the years. USS Raleigh listing. He was part of the detail of sailors sent to the capsized Utah to cut a sailor out-He is one of the men in the picture. Me-Ray -Brother-Dad-Brother--The center 3 are gone--RIP--GOG BLESS AMERICA---Tee
