Description: This item was acquired from the estate of Mr Jesse Thompson here in San Diego CA. Jesse Thompson was 13 years old and just feet away from the USS Arizona when it was bombed in the attack on Pearl Harbor. "Boom, boom! I heard it, so I ran out in my pajamas in the backyard and that’s where the battleships were," Thompson recalled. The son of a naval officer, Thompson was put to work over the next three days loading machine gun belts. Seventy years later, his spacious Bonita California home is filled with memorabilia from that tragic day, and the battles that followed in World War II, including historical photos, a jar of sand taken from Iwo Jima and rifles and weapons that belong to Japanese soldiers.
