Frank Weber, a 101-year-old World War II veteran, resides in Scappoose, Ore., and continues to reflect on his remarkable naval career.
Born on May 25, 1924 in Kansas City, Kans., Weber joined the navy at 17, inspired by his cousins.
He began boot camp at Great Lakes near Chicago on Nov. 27, 1941, just days before the attack on Pearl Harbor.
His training was cut short due to the war, and he was assigned to the USS Colorado, the only battleship in the Pacific fleet not at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7.
