- Andrew Jackson Kirksey and Harold W. Marney
TM2/c Andrew Jackson Kirksey and MoMM2/c Harold W. Marney were the two crew members of John F. Kennedy's PT-109 who were lost when the boat was struck at night by a Japanese destroyer. Marney was 19 from Springfield, Massachusetts. Kirksey was a torpedoman from Reynolds, Georgia, a father at 25. They were the only two of the crew of 15 who did not survive the incident. In the movie PT-109, the crew keeps on calling out the names of these two, the only reference to them being lost. The National Geographic TV special names the two and their full titles, their pictures, and where they were from.
