It’s been nearly eight decades since Illinois sailor William Klasing was killed during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. His remains were just recently identified after a long process of identifying dozens of men who died on the USS Oklahoma. This weekend, members of his family from near and far are gathering in Trenton for a funeral procession and reburial in his honor.
