Emond was lined up with his fellow Navy members for morning colors on Dec. 7, 1941, when he watched the ships in front of him sink in the attack on Pearl Harbor.
On Saturday, Nov. 5 at 1:30 p.m., Emond, 98, will be sharing his memories of the day and answering audience questions in a presentation at the Molino Branch Library. The free event, commemorating the 75th anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, is being planned in conjunction with the Molino Mid-County Historical Society. The University of West Florida Historic Trust will also provide a display of reproductions of WWII uniforms and other memorabilia for the event.
