THOMAS, W.Va. (AP) Services are set this week for a West Virginia service member who died during World War II.
The remains of Navy Patternmaker 1st Class Stanislaw F. Drwall are set for burial in his hometown of Thomas in Tucker County, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency said in a news release.
A graveside service will be held Thursday at Mt. Calvary Cemetery, according to Hinkle-Fenner Funeral Home in Davis.
Thomas was 25 when the USS Oklahoma was attacked by Japanese aircraft on Dec. 7, 1941, at Pearl Harbor. The battleship quickly capsized and 429 crew members died, the agency said.
