On December 7, 1941, 22-year-old radioman Warren “Red” Upton was getting ready to shave when a Japanese torpedo struck his ship, USS Utah (AG-16). In 2020, Upton recounted to The Associated Press that no one knew what caused Utah to shake. The battleship-turned-target ship was then struck by a second torpedo, which caused her to roll over and sink quickly. Upton abandoned ship, scraping barnacles on Utah‘s hull on his way down. He swam to shore with many of his shipmates.
