It was Sunday, December 7, 1941. As usual, the wake-up call came at 5:45a.m. The men aboard the warship USS Arizona stretched and rubbed their eyes. Seaman Russell Warriner was awakened by Quartermaster Louis Conter. Russell made his bed and helped clean the huge, shared room. The men went to the washroom, dressed in their uniforms and sat down to breakfast. It looked like it would be a normal day on board the ship.
那一天是 1941 年 12 月 7 日,星期日。和往常一样,起床的号声在凌晨 5 点45 分吹响。美国“亚利桑那号”战列舰上的人们伸了伸懒腰,揉了揉眼睛。拉塞尔· 沃里纳海员被路易· 孔泰军需官喊醒。拉塞尔整理好床铺,帮忙收拾好共用的大房间。他们上了洗手间,穿上制服,坐下来吃早饭。那一天仿佛会是船上一个寻常的日子。
