My stepfather, John "Rusty" Rastocan, was on the USS  California when Pearl 
Harbor was bombed.   When the order to abandon  ship came, Rusty went 
overboard with the ships priest.  He said he thought  it was his best chance to 
get into heaven.  Fortunately he survived  and served in the So. Pacific 
during the war.  He was once  declared MIA but survived again.  He died in 
1999. 
 Rarely  talked about the war, but was very active in veterans affairs.
