I read about this on the WaPo (who now require you to provide an email to read "free" articles
) but fortunately they provided a link to a full interview with him made last year. He died Aug.28.
As a bombardier, he launched a torpedo that hit the battleship Utah where 58 men lost their lives. "I think of the people who died because of me," he said.
Here's the 2023 interview from the WaPo article:
