Great Regulars: On Dec. 7, 1941, Stanley Holzhauer

was 16 years old living on the family farm. The family didn't have a radio. His uncle was the sheriff, and drove out to their house that Sunday afternoon to tell them that Japan had bombed Pearl Harbor. Stanley said, "I didn't know who she was."

After high school Stan got sucked into the vacuum of the war.
