    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with Charlie May Navigator, Navy, World War II 2002 OH 172 OH 172 May, Charlie (b. 1923). Oral History Interview, 2002. User: 1 audio cassettes (ca. 53 min.); analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master: 1 video recording (ca. 77 min.); ½ inch, color. Abstract: Charlie May, a resident of Madison and native of Morley (Missouri), was waiting on his ship to be ferried to church services aboard the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor (Hawaii) on December 7 th , 1941 when Japanese warplanes attacked a portion of the Pacific fleet and other installations; he recounts his activities that fateful day as well as discusses his World War II service as a yeoman aboard the USS Phoenix , US Navy, Seventh Fleet. May covers his training as a clerk typist, his postwar education and career, attendance at ship crew reunions and membership in the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association, and the fate of the Phoenix . May enlisted in January 1941 and chose service in the US Navy due to paternal heritage and a desire to “see the world.” Upon completion of basic training at Great Lakes Training Center in Waukegan (Illinois) he sailed by troop transport from San Francisco to Pearl Harbor. Moored behind USS Nevada and the rest of Battleship Row May manned a .50 caliber machine gun on light cruiser Phoenix when the call-to-arms sounded. He outlines the counterattack that the cruisers and destroyers mounted on the attacking planes and the ensuing search for the Japanese fleet, the post-attack escort of hospital ships, and convoying the troopship carrying the 32 nd Division to Australia.
