It was an incredible learning experience for us to speak with Everett Hyland, who was aboard the USS Pennsylvania when the ship was severely damaged by a 500-lb bomb. |

During the war, Mr. Hyland spent nine months at the hospital recovering from his wounds. He is quoted as saying "I think it's a basic part of humanity, the will to stay alive. No matter how severely injured, we will fight for life." |
