USS Oklahoma Sailor Accounted For From World War II (Stewart, E.)

Release No: 21-033 March 18, 2021

WASHINGTON — The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) announced today that Navy Machinist’s Mate 2nd Class Everett R. Stewart, 22, killed during World War II, was accounted for on Dec. 8, 2020.

On Dec. 7, 1941, Stewart was assigned to the battleship USS Oklahoma, which was moored at Ford Island, Pearl Harbor, when the ship was attacked by Japanese aircraft. The USS Oklahoma sustained multiple torpedo hits, which caused it to quickly capsize. The attack on the ship resulted in the deaths of 429 crewmen, including Stewart.
