Durward Swanson, Dec. 7, 1941, Hickam Field survivor, looks upon the torn and tattered American Flag that sits in the Pacific Air Forces Headquarters building on Nov. 24, 2011. Swanson was a U.S. Army Air Corps motorcycle patrolman at Hickam when the Japanese attacked the bases on the Island of Oahu 70 years ago. Swanson and his best friend Albert Lloyd pulled the flag off the flag pole at around 9 p.m. on the same night. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Mike Meares)
