The oldest living Pearl Harbor survivor on Wednesday celebrated his upcoming 105th birthday by visiting the National World War II Museum in New Orleans, where he was met by a flag-waving crowd.

Joseph Eskenazi traveled from his home in Redondo Beach, California, on Friday via Amtrak to make it to the event scheduled shortly before his 105th birthday on Jan. 30, The Associated Press reported.

Six other World War II veterans representing the Navy, Army and Marines flew to the museum for the event. 

Actor Gary Sinise’s Soaring Valor Program organized the trip for the veterans. The project schedules visits for veterans of World War II to the museum built in their honor. MORE

  2. Thank you Joseph Eskenazi for the great life you gave me and thousands of others world wide. I hope we get to save our grand kids from the coming storm in Washington from the infection they’ve gotten from the left. My brother William was there with you, but is now gone to join with the angels for other work as assigned.
