The Star-Ledger has a great piece today on New Jersey sailors who were aboard the destroyer USS Hobson when it was fatally rammed and split in two during wargames by The Wasp, a U.S. aircraft carrier hundreds of miles from the Azores in the North Atlantic. The Hobson sank in less than four minutes taking 176 US sailors with it, sparing only 61.
These are their harrowing tales or the sinking and their survival.
