Obit Pearl Harbor Survivor Ira Schab

Pearl Harbor survivor and U.S. Navy veteran Ira “Ike” Schab has died. He was 105. His daughter says he passed away at home early Sunday. There remain only about a dozen survivors of the 1941 surprise attack, which killed just over 2,400 troops and propelled the United States into World War II. Schab joined the Navy at age 18, following in his father's footsteps. He was serving as a tuba player in the USS Dobbin’s band when the attack happened. In recent years Schab has traveled to an annual observance at the Hawaii military base to commemorate the fallen servicemen.
