Testimonial:
Then Ensign Herb Rommel called USS OKLAHOMA to battle stations with the immortal words:

"This is a real air raid - this is no ******** shit"

Herb's use of an expletive which he was normally never known to use alerted the men who hear the call to the seriousness of the situation. Many OKLAHOMA survivors credit Herb with their lives as a result.
