[0:00] Tonight, this Wednesday, what's the

[0:01] future for the suspected railroad

[0:03] killer? Is there an insanity plea in his

[0:06] future? A $4 drug that could save a

[0:09] thousand babies a day preventing AIDS

[0:12] from being passed on. Sailing beyond

[0:15] American law. We'll take a closer look

[0:17] at cruise ships and the graveyard

[0:21] beneath the sea laid to rest at Pearl

[0:24] Harbor.

[0:32] From ABC News World Headquarters in New

[0:35] York, this is World News Tonight with

[0:38] Peter Jennings.

[0:39] >> Good evening. The suspected railroad

[0:41] killer said today he's going to

[0:42] cooperate with the police and he wants

[0:44] it over in a hurry. It may not be quite

[0:47] that simple. Raphael Rescendus Ramirez,

[0:50] which does turn out to be an alias and

[0:52] who looks older than 39, may now be

[0:54] facing murder charges in at least nine

[0:57] different cases. One more was added

[0:59] today. And there are some hints today,

[1:01] just hints that lawyers may mount a

[1:04] legal defense for him based on his

[1:06] mental condition. First, we go to ABC's

[1:08] Mike Von who's in Houston. As Rescendes

[1:12] was being brought into court this

[1:14] morning, Texas prosecutors were adding

[1:16] 83-year-old Ley Mason to the list of

[1:19] victims he is believed to have

[1:20] bludgeoned to death. They had suspected

[1:23] the connection. Now palm prints from

[1:25] Rescendes last night matched those found

[1:27] on the woman's window pane in Hugh

[1:29] Springs, Texas.

[1:32] After waving his right to remain silent

[1:34] and answering questions throughout the

[1:35] night, Recendes this morning made just

[1:38] one request.

[1:39] >> Do you have any questions?

[1:43] Can all this be done very quickly so

[1:45] that I can say that I'm guilty?

[1:46] >> But the judge said it is not the right

[1:48] time for a guilty plea. Today's court

[1:51] appearance was for a charge of

[1:53] burglarizing the house of Houston doctor

[1:55] Claudia Benton before she was raped and

[1:58] killed. Samples of Rendez's blood were

[2:01] sent to the state DNA lab last night. If

[2:04] they match samples found on the Houston

[2:06] doctor, prosecutors say they will

[2:08] upgrade the charge to murder and seek

[2:10] the death penalty. I

[2:12] >> mean, in a murder case, you have a

[2:13] couple of defenses. I didn't do it. You

[2:14] got the wrong guy. Or it was

[2:16] self-defense. I don't think that's going

[2:17] to be an option here. So, I guess the

[2:20] third would be I'm crazy.

[2:21] >> The courtappointed attorneys refused to

[2:24] say how they intend to defend Rundas,

[2:26] but complain that investigators have

[2:28] already abused their client's rights. He

[2:31] looked very tired and like he's been up

[2:33] all night. It looks like he's been

[2:36] questioned or badgered all night long.

[2:38] >> Investigators who have questioned Rendez

[2:41] say he was calm and quiet but refused to

[2:43] describe any of the crime scenes and

[2:45] answered many questions with rambling

[2:47] political and religious references. Mike

[2:50] von ABC News Houston.

[2:52] >> As we said at the outset, there's some

[2:54] hints today about a defense for

[2:56] Asendees. ABC's Terry Moran has been

[2:58] talking to lawyers in Houston today.

[3:00] He's our legal affairs correspondent.

[3:02] What do you make of all this in terms of

[3:04] a defense?

[3:05] >> Well, Peter, it's quite possible that

[3:06] mental state will be an issue in this

[3:08] case. What we know about Mr. Rosendez's

[3:10] mental state is that his family has a

[3:12] condition of facilitating his surrender

[3:14] asked that he receive psychiatric help.

[3:16] We know that he's exhibited bizarre

[3:18] behavior in courtrooms in the past. We

[3:20] know that he, as Mike von friend

[3:22] reported, engaged in rambling diet

[3:24] tribes during the questioning and that

[3:25] he's asked for kosher food in jail. So

[3:28] mental state will probably be an issue,

[3:29] especially if the DNA at the crime

[3:31] scenes turns out to match his.

[3:33] >> But Terry, he also shows signs of

[3:34] wanting to plead guilty and if he wants

[3:36] to do that, nobody can stop him. Right.

[3:38] >> That's true. American law places

[3:40] tremendous weight on the autonomy, the

[3:42] dignity, and free choice of an

[3:44] individual defendant to make that call.

[3:46] But a defense lawyer, if he or she has a

[3:49] doubt about the sanity of a defendant

[3:51] making a a guilty plea, especially to a

[3:53] potential capital murder charge, has a

[3:55] duty to tell the court that he or she

[3:57] doesn't think the defendant can do that.

[3:59] And that would trigger a full-blown

[4:01] competency hearing.

[4:02] >> Okay, thanks very much, Terry Brown, our

[4:03] legal affairs correspondent on the

[4:04] future of this trial. Overseas today,

[4:08] violence again in Iran, and the

[4:10] conservatives have won around. In Iran's

[4:12] struggle for power, it's turned quite

[4:14] violent in the last week, as you saw

[4:15] last night, between those who want Iran

[4:17] to be more open and progressive, many of

[4:20] them activist university students, and

[4:21] those who, for one reason or another,

[4:23] want Iran to remain under the tight

[4:25] control of the most conservative

[4:27] religious leaders. On today's process,

[4:30] ABC's Richard Gizburg.

[4:33] This was the kind of demonstration

[4:35] Iran's religious leadership wanted, and

[4:37] it was enormous. Workers were given the

[4:40] day off. Many were bust into Thran and

[4:43] the result was hundreds of thousands of

[4:45] people in the streets. A nationally

[4:47] televised show of support for the status

[4:49] quo and against the six days of

[4:51] studentled protests.

[4:55] >> One Muller warned those responsible for

[4:58] the student protests could be tried as

[5:00] enemies of the state which carries the

[5:02] penalty of death. 70% of Iranians

[5:05] recently voted for President Muhammad

[5:07] Hatami and his promise of reform. But

[5:10] the students clearly put President

[5:12] Hatami in an awkward position by taking

[5:14] to the streets in demonstrations that at

[5:17] times descended into mob violence.

[5:22] >> Hatami went on Iranian television last

[5:24] night to distance himself from the

[5:26] protesters, saying the unrest was

[5:28] against the country's interests. Today,

[5:30] the students were nowhere to be seen.

[5:32] One of their leaders said the protests

[5:34] were suspended, but the issues that

[5:36] brought the students onto the streets

[5:38] remain. Richard Gizbert, ABC News,

[5:42] London.

[5:43] >> Just one other item from overseas for

[5:44] now. Not about violence. In Russia, a

[5:46] plague of locusts. The bugs have

[5:49] destroyed vast stretches of crop land in

[5:51] southern parts of the country. In some

[5:52] regions, they even own the roads. US

[5:55] experts say the damage may force Russia

[5:57] to make a new request for food aid from

[6:00] the international community, probably

[6:01] the United States, next year. When we

[6:04] come back, enormous excitement about a

[6:07] drug for mothers to be with AIDS, and

[6:10] sailing through the loopholes, cruise

[6:13] ships, and the law. We'll take a closer

[6:15] look.

[6:17] >> This is World News Tonight with Peter

[6:20] Jennings, brought to you by Zantac 75.

[6:25] >> Getting those urban cowboys on horses

[6:27] was trying enough. And you throw in some

[6:29] serious chili, we're talking major

[6:31] heartburn.

[6:32] We were way out there in this cowboy. He

[6:35] pulls a Zantac 75 out of the saddle bag.

[6:37] I said, "What are you, a Zantac

[6:39] salesman?" He said, "No, I'm doctor."

[6:42] >> The medicine in Zantac 75 is the number

[6:45] one doctor prescribed acid reducer. It

[6:47] relieves even your toughest heartburn,

[6:48] controlling acid for up to 12 hours.

[6:50] >> Hats off to you, doc.

[6:52] >> Zantac 75 for tough heartburn. Doctors

[6:54] know

[6:57] >> it's surprising who's drinking insure.

[6:59] Healthy people. Staying healthy means

[7:02] eating right. But when you can't eat

[7:03] nutritious foods like these, drink

[7:05] insure. With essential vitamins and

[7:07] minerals you find in vegetables, calcium

[7:09] like in milk and protein like in fish.

[7:12] Insure is a source of complete balanced

[7:14] nutrition. Helps you stay active and

[7:16] energetic. Drink Insure and drink to

[7:18] your health. And now there's Insure.

[7:20] High calcium with calcium and other key

[7:23] nutrients to help build strong bones.

[7:26] >> I don't just paste my dentures anymore.

[7:28] Now I bond them with Seabond denture

[7:31] adhesive. Only seab bond is a soft micro

[7:33] thin seal with two powerful adhesives

[7:36] that bond dentures to your gums so they

[7:38] can hold and fit comfortably all day. I

[7:41] can bite and chew with confidence. Easy

[7:44] to remove, no messy cleanups. Bond your

[7:46] dentures with Seabond. And now discover

[7:49] Seabond Natural Fresh. All day bonding

[7:52] power with natural mint freshness for

[7:54] fresher breath.

[7:56] Do you use the same corn pads your

[7:58] grandmother used? Well, there's a

[8:00] breakthrough Band-Aid brand corn relief

[8:02] cushions. It covers the whole corn,

[8:05] relieving the awful, painful pressure.

[8:08] Plus, it's more comfortable than your

[8:09] old pad and it stays in place better.

[8:12] After all, it's from Band-Aid Brand.

[8:14] >> Band-aid Brand Cushions for Feet. A

[8:17] breakthrough in corn pain relief.

[8:19] >> For blister prevention, calluses, and

[8:21] bunyions. Try the line of Band-Aid brand

[8:23] cushions for feet.

[8:27] >> There's very important news today in the

[8:28] struggle against AIDS. So many infected

[8:30] mothers pass the virus on to their

[8:32] children during childbirth. And today in

[8:36] what the Health and Human Services

[8:37] Secretary Donna Shala calls an

[8:39] extraordinary finding. A new study says

[8:41] there is a powerful weapon at hand.

[8:44] Here's ABC's Bill Blakemore.

[8:46] The news is good news everywhere there's

[8:49] AIDS in the US and especially in the

[8:52] developing world. Today researchers from

[8:55] the US and Uganda announced that the

[8:57] drug nverrapine offers several

[8:59] advantages over the current ACT

[9:01] treatment for pregnant women. It's much

[9:03] more affordable. Where the ACT regimen

[9:06] costs at least $200, way out of reach

[9:09] for most people in the developing world,

[9:11] neropene costs only $4. It's much less

[9:15] complicated to give. Instead of repeated

[9:17] doses during pregnancy, one pill for the

[9:20] mother at delivery and some drops for

[9:22] the newborn. An enormous advantage in

[9:25] developing countries where many women

[9:26] don't see a doctor until they go into

[9:28] labor. And it's more effective. When

[9:31] mothers are given ACT, 25% of newborns

[9:35] still get HIV. With Napene, it's only

[9:39] 13%. you have the potential of

[9:42] preventing 1,000 babies per day

[9:46] worldwide from getting infected at a

[9:48] relatively low cost.

[9:50] >> Narapine could be used uh uh universally

[9:54] to all uh uh pregnant women in

[9:58] developing countries.

[9:59] >> Even with no neverapene, more than one

[10:01] in 10 newborns get infected. And in

[10:03] developing countries, many pregnant

[10:05] women don't seek health care even when

[10:07] they're in labor. But with this drug,

[10:09] governments in those countries can now

[10:10] offer HIV programs for pregnant women

[10:13] that have a much better chance of

[10:15] success. Bill Blakemore, ABC News. In

[10:19] Washington, it's been another day in the

[10:20] very serious debate in the Senate about

[10:22] what rights patients should have dealing

[10:24] with their health maintenance

[10:26] organizations. Another day of debate and

[10:28] for the Democrats, another day of

[10:30] defeat. Here's ABC's Linda Douglas.

[10:33] For the second day, Republicans closed

[10:36] ranks to defeat one of the Democrats

[10:37] most sweeping proposals to apply federal

[10:40] HMO reforms to all insured Americans.

[10:43] Frustrated Democrats cried foul.

[10:45] >> This bill has been bought and paid for

[10:47] by the insurance industry.

[10:50] >> Republicans argued most Americans are

[10:52] covered by at least some state insurance

[10:54] protections.

[10:55] >> This is about arrogance.

[10:57] This is about people walking around here

[10:59] in Washington DC thinking this is the

[11:00] center of the universe. Democrats were

[11:03] defeated on specific proposals as well,

[11:05] letting women choose their OB/GYN as

[11:08] their primary care physician, allowing

[11:10] HMO patients to go to any emergency

[11:12] room, allowing access to clinical

[11:14] trials. But Republicans scrambled to

[11:17] deflect criticism that they are

[11:18] insensitive to consumer complaints,

[11:21] especially complaints from women. They

[11:23] approved a measure to permit longer

[11:24] hospital stays for mastctomy. And they

[11:27] are also pushing their own plan to offer

[11:29] greater access to OB/GYN care, but it

[11:31] would not apply to everyone. How many

[11:34] patients are covered by this amendment?

[11:37] >> 20 million somewhere in that area,

[11:39] though. Anyone?

[11:40] >> Well, I would say to my friend that 50

[11:42] million are left out. I would say to my

[11:44] friend, the vast majority of women are

[11:46] left out. Tomorrow, Republicans do

[11:49] expect to pass a measure with limited

[11:51] HMO reforms. Senate offices say they

[11:54] aren't hearing much from the public,

[11:56] which makes them believe maybe modest

[11:57] reforms are all the public wants. Linda

[12:00] Douglas, ABC News, Capitol Hill.

[12:03] >> A note for the disabled. The government

[12:04] has announced new regulations to make

[12:06] phones and beepers easier for disabled

[12:08] people to use. Cell phones will have to

[12:10] be redesigned so they work with hearing

[12:12] aids. And some conventional phones will

[12:14] be required to have voice activated

[12:16] controls or larger numbers on keypads.

[12:19] Maybe both. On the money tonight,

[12:21] there's been a big rally in the price of

[12:23] crude oil, which gets passed on in so

[12:25] many ways. Oil was down at $10 a barrel

[12:27] in December. Since then, it's doubled to

[12:29] 20, mostly because the important oil

[12:32] producing countries have kept the

[12:33] agreement among themselves to limit

[12:35] production. It is concrete that many

[12:38] women are talking about today after the

[12:40] study which says that many minority

[12:42] women trying to move up in the corporate

[12:43] world say they had a concrete ceiling,

[12:46] not a glass one. These women say that on

[12:48] occasion the glass ceiling shatters, but

[12:51] not concrete.

[12:53] Another example of how nostalgia sells.

[12:55] Planters Peanut says its sales are up

[12:57] substantially since it brought back the

[12:59] Mr. Peanut character as the focus of its

[13:02] advertising campaign. Same thing

[13:04] happened when Stariss began using

[13:05] Charlie the Tuna again and Charmin the

[13:08] paper towel people brought back Mr.

[13:11] Whipple.

[13:12] On Wall Street today, the Dow Jones

[13:13] Industrial Average was down just under

[13:15] 27 points to close at 11,148.

[13:20] On the NASDAQ, stocks were up almost 40

[13:23] points. There's some tension for Major

[13:25] League Baseball today. The umpires union

[13:28] has announced that nearly all the

[13:29] umpires will resign on September the

[13:32] second with a month left in the season.

[13:34] Their contract prevents them from

[13:36] striking, but the empires are unhappy

[13:38] about pay and scheduling among other

[13:41] issues. And the threat to resign could

[13:43] be an effort to force negotiations on a

[13:45] new contract. And in France today,

[13:48] there's no question that American Lance

[13:50] Armstrong is the man to beat. He has

[13:53] widened his lead in the Tour to France.

[13:56] He's the one in the Yellow Journey,

[13:57] which is the world's most prestigious

[13:59] bicycle race. He finished fifth in

[14:00] today's stage and is now 7 and 12

[14:03] minutes ahead of his nearest

[14:05] competitors. Armstrong's success made

[14:07] even more remarkable because of his

[14:10] recovery from such a serious case of

[14:12] cancer. In a moment, beyond the law of

[14:15] the land, we'll take a closer look at

[14:17] cruise ships.

[14:24] I'm not a person who rushes into things

[14:26] until they're great. like this new

[14:28] fabric spray resolve fabric refresher.

[14:31] It gets rid of odors safely and

[14:33] permanently and dries fast.

[14:40] See, Resolve removes the toughest odors

[14:42] with a gentle mist. Your sofa's not only

[14:46] fresh smelling, in minutes it's dry. New

[14:49] quick drying resolve fabric refresher.

[14:51] Why wait? It's in your laundry aisle

[14:53] now.

[15:14] Also, try new genuine Bear Gel Caps. The

[15:17] only gel cap that can help save your

[15:19] life. New Bear Gel Caps. Powerful pain

[15:22] relief and so much more.

[15:24] My dentures always fit fine. I never

[15:26] thought of them as a problem until I saw

[15:28] the video of my son's wedding. It was

[15:30] then that I decided to try Fixedident

[15:33] because Fixent adjusts to the unique

[15:35] contours of your dentures and gums,

[15:37] forming a thin, powerful seal for a

[15:39] better hold than you ever thought

[15:40] possible.

[15:41] >> It was like a whole new feeling. So snug

[15:43] and secure. For once, I actually forgot

[15:46] that I even wore dentures. So now I like

[15:49] what I see.

[15:50] >> Find out for yourself what it feels like

[15:51] to fix it and forget it.

[15:55] When it comes to your health, never

[15:57] compromise. Even when choosing a

[15:59] laxative, you need one that's strong

[16:00] enough to work overnight, but also

[16:02] gentle. Try doctor recommended Dulax.

[16:05] It's both strong and gentle. It even has

[16:08] a special comfort coating to protect

[16:09] your stomach. In fact, doctors recommend

[16:11] Dulax most, more than correct and

[16:14] Zenicott combined. Don't compromise. Get

[16:16] strong. Get gentle. Get doctor

[16:18] recommended Dolax. And for strong and

[16:21] gentle relief in minutes, get DOAC

[16:23] suppositories.

[16:28] >> We're going to take a closer look

[16:29] tonight at cruise ships and the law

[16:32] because the largest cruising company in

[16:34] the world, Carnival Cruise Lines, has

[16:36] admitted in the last 24 hours that its

[16:38] employees have been accused of sexual

[16:40] assault 62 times in the last 5 years,

[16:44] which is almost an average of once a

[16:46] month. Now, Carnival makes the point

[16:47] today, this is not an enormous number in

[16:50] an industry which has become so

[16:52] enormous. More than 5 million people

[16:54] went on cruises from North American

[16:56] ports alone last year. But another

[16:59] reason this gets our attention today is

[17:01] this question of the law. What happens

[17:03] when crime is alleged to have happened

[17:06] at sea? Our first reporter is from ABC's

[17:08] Ron Claybourne.

[17:10] The alleged sexual assaults took place

[17:12] between 1993 and 1998. The allegations

[17:16] include rape and sodomy by Carnival

[17:18] Cruise crew members against passengers

[17:21] and other crew members. Carnival was

[17:23] forced to reveal these statistics in a

[17:25] lawsuit by a 29-year-old former female

[17:28] employee who says she was raped in her

[17:30] cabin in 1998 by a fellow crew member.

[17:34] She says when she reported this crime to

[17:36] the cruise line, they urged her not to

[17:38] file charges. and they said, "The way

[17:40] you keep it confidential is you just

[17:43] keep it within our family."

[17:45] >> In her civil complaint, the woman said

[17:47] she went to the FBI as soon as the ship

[17:49] returned to Miami, but her alleged

[17:51] asalent fled to his native Italy that

[17:54] same day. Her lawyers say with

[17:56] Carnival's help, critics say that

[17:59] happens often.

[18:00] >> The ship docks and suddenly before you

[18:02] know it, he's being hustled off the

[18:04] ship, onto a plane, and back to his

[18:06] country. The former head of Carnival

[18:08] security says that when a passenger

[18:10] files a complaint, the cruise liner does

[18:12] whatever it can to keep them happy and

[18:14] quiet.

[18:15] >> They start getting captain's tours. They

[18:17] start sitting at the captain's table,

[18:19] get roses, bottles of Don Perry own

[18:21] champagne.

[18:22] >> Carnival denies ever helping suspects

[18:25] escape or trying to dissuade victims

[18:27] from filing complaints. Carnival's

[18:29] position on this stuff is that it

[18:30] investigates incidents and it either

[18:32] involves the authorities or doesn't at

[18:33] the victim's wishes or request.

[18:36] >> But cruise ship's legal obligations on

[18:38] the high seas are unclear. The ship's

[18:40] captain has wide discretion in

[18:42] investigating allegations and preserving

[18:44] evidence and is not even required to

[18:46] report all crimes to authorities. Ron

[18:49] Clayborn, ABC News, Miami. There are a

[18:52] lot of areas in which the big cruise

[18:53] lines have an advantage by being at sea,

[18:55] so to speak. Their crews are not subject

[18:58] to US labor laws. There's no minimum

[19:00] wage. They are subject to US

[19:02] environmental law, but only when they

[19:04] are in US waters. Occasionally, a cruise

[19:07] ship is caught dumping oil waste at sea.

[19:11] And on at least one occasion, the Royal

[19:13] Caribbean lines had to pay a $9 million

[19:15] fine and admitted they've been doing it

[19:17] for years. It is very hard to police

[19:20] ships at sea. And more than anything

[19:22] else, there is the matter of not paying

[19:24] American taxes. Here's ABC's Lisa Stark.

[19:31] These giant companies, which operate

[19:33] from the United States and carry

[19:35] millions of American passengers, managed

[19:37] to avoid most US corporate income taxes

[19:40] under a law designed originally to

[19:42] promote trade by cargo ships.

[19:47] Nelson.

[19:48] >> They are sailing through this avenue

[19:51] that was left open by Congress.

[19:53] >> Last year, Carnival Cruises had an $800

[19:55] million profit from all its businesses

[19:58] and paid just $5 million in income

[20:01] taxes. Royal Caribbean had a $300

[20:04] million profit, paid essentially no US

[20:07] income taxes. They do it by registering

[20:10] their ships in countries with no

[20:12] corporate taxes. the Bahamas, Panama,

[20:15] Liberia. Even the American icon Disney,

[20:18] which got into the cruise business last

[20:20] year, flies the Bahamian flag. The

[20:23] cruise industry says it pays tens of

[20:26] millions in port fees and supports the

[20:28] US economy in other ways.

[20:30] >> The fact of the matter is is we bring

[20:31] economic benefit to the community. Um we

[20:34] we bring uh activity and jobs. Last year

[20:38] we had 175,000

[20:41] American employees shores side alone.

[20:43] >> The tax law is important to the cruise

[20:46] industry and there has never been a

[20:47] serious attempt to change it. But some

[20:50] in Congress would like to.

[20:52] >> This is an industry that pays no taxes

[20:54] nowhere and it's accountable to

[20:56] basically no one.

[20:57] >> But no one is itching to take this

[20:59] industry on. It has worked hard to build

[21:02] a solid reputation and solid connections

[21:05] in Washington. Lisa Stark, ABC News,

[21:08] Washington.

[21:10] >> Closer look for today. When we come

[21:11] back, the men of the USS Arizona.

[24:33] hands.

[24:35] He want weigh in.

[24:38] >> 2020 ABC tonight.

[24:42] Just a brief review of our top story

[24:43] today. The suspected railroad killer, he

[24:45] now says his name is Anel Machurino

[24:48] Resendes, is formerly accused in the

[24:51] October death of a Texas woman. It's the

[24:53] ninth murder that he's been connected

[24:54] to. There are also some hints in Texas

[24:56] today that his attorneys may explore

[24:59] some kind of insanity defense for him.

[25:02] Finally, from us this evening, a place

[25:04] to rest. It is an essential part of

[25:07] modern American history that when the

[25:09] Japanese attacked the American fleet at

[25:11] Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, there was no

[25:13] longer any question about America

[25:14] staying out of World War II. One of the

[25:17] ships attacked and sunk that day was the

[25:19] USS Arizona, which is now part of the

[25:22] memorial at Pearl Harbor. And now the

[25:24] Navy has said that some of the men who

[25:26] survived that day may be buried in the

[25:30] Arizona when they die, laid to rest with

[25:32] the shipmates they have never forgotten.

[25:35] ABC's Tom Foreman reports from Hawaii.

[25:42] >> Mate, first class Donald H. Stark

[25:46] arriving.

[25:48] For the first time in 57 years, Donald

[25:51] Starks is back on board the USS Arizona.

[25:56] His ashes brought here by his family and

[25:58] taken by divers to be interred in the

[26:01] ship beneath the waters of Pearl Harbor.

[26:05] He felt like he

[26:08] escaped something that maybe he

[26:10] shouldn't have. And you know, he he was

[26:13] lucky that he did, but he didn't know

[26:15] why.

[26:18] In 1941, when Japanese planes attacked

[26:21] the American fleet here in Hawaii, the

[26:24] battleship Arizona lost more lives than

[26:27] any other ship in US naval history.

[26:30] 1,177

[26:32] crewmen died, many in tmbed, their

[26:35] bodies never recovered.

[26:37] >> You can't explain it to you.

[26:39] >> That is why 85year-old Joe Langell wants

[26:42] his ashes placed at the memorial the

[26:44] morning of the attack. He happened to be

[26:46] ashore.

[26:47] >> They died. I didn't. Why didn't I die?

[26:51] >> And ultimately, you want to be with

[26:52] them.

[26:53] >> Will be.

[26:55] >> That's assured. Now,

[26:57] >> Glenn Lane will come back, too. The

[26:59] hours he spent fighting fires on the

[27:01] Arizona and watching friends perish have

[27:04] never left him. I I don't look upon that

[27:07] as as anything to brag about, but I do

[27:10] look upon it as an honor to to be put

[27:14] there in my final resting place.

[27:16] >> Only a few dozen of the men who were on

[27:19] board the Arizona and survived the

[27:21] attack are still alive and many of them

[27:24] say the decision to be laid to rest here

[27:27] is a difficult one.

[27:30] But those who have decided to come back

[27:33] say they hope they and their families

[27:35] will find peace beneath these waters

[27:38] where war once found them. Tom Foreman,

[27:42] ABC News, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
