A sailor killed during the Pearl Harbor attack<\/a> was laid to rest Thursday, over 81 years after the 1941 invasion.<\/p>\n

Gunner\u2019s Mate 3rd Class Herman Schmidt was 28 years old when Japanese forces attacked the USS Oklahoma at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Schmidt, along with over 400 other men from the USS Oklahoma, was initially buried as an unknown soldier. Only 35 of the men on the USS Oklahoma were identified immediately after the war.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 2015, analysts were cleared to exhume and identify the remains from the ship. As of September 2021, 346 sailors and Marines have been identified.<\/p>\n

Schmidt was identified in 2021 through a DNA sample<\/a> from his only son, Michael.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I have mixed emotions,” Michael, now 82, told The Washington Times. “I thought it was fantastic that they did it.”<\/p>\n

The Navy awarded Schmidt full military honors during the ceremony. None of those in attendance knew Schmidt personally, but his great-nephew was there.<\/p>\n

“The pride I feel \u2014 that I see people come out to support somebody they don\u2019t even know \u2014 it\u2019s just incredible,” Gary Bishop, Schmidt’s great-nephew, said. “It\u2019s humbling.”<\/p>\n

“We are here today because GM3 Herman Schmidt heard the call, and he stood the watch like everyone aboard the USS Oklahoma,” Navy chaplain Lt. Cmdr. Robert Price said<\/a> during the ceremony.<\/p>\n

“We never forget the sacrifice that people gave for us.<\/a> This is personal for us because this is a sailor. This is one of ours.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
