Before then, his remains had been buried in a mass grave in Hawaii alongside other crewmen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Arlington man went into service in early 1941 and served aboard the USS Oklahoma. Nearly 430 crewmen were killed after Japanese warplanes launched torpedoes at the ship on Dec. 7, 1941.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coke was one of almost 50 young Arlington residents who went off to war but didn&#8217;t come home, said Wanda Marshall, treasurer of the Arlington Historical Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2015, the Defense Department announced it would exhume the bodies of unidentified USS Oklahoma crew members and try to identify them. <br\/> <br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1199\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ap17171599243201.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ap17171599243201.jpg.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ap17171599243201.jpg.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ap17171599243201.jpg.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ap17171599243201.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,682 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ap17171599243201.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1023 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span>Sherry Coke Dorn, of Arlington, Texas, the second cousin of George Anderson Coke Jr., visits Parkdale Cemetery on Monday, June 19, 2017. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span>Photo Credit: Joyce Marshall\/Star-Telegram via AP<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Doland Maner is one of the few relatives left who knew Coke personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We weren&#8217;t buddies,&#8221; the 94-year-old said. &#8220;But he was an all-American boy. He was into a lot of devilment, but if you didn&#8217;t like George Anderson, you didn&#8217;t like anybody.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coke will have a public memorial service with full military honors Saturday. He&#8217;ll be buried in Parkdale Cemetery, next to his parents George A. &#8220;Dutch&#8221; Coke Sr. and Julina Jane Tomlin Coke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It just gives you goose bumps that after all this time, he will be back in the hometown he loved and the people he loved,&#8221; said Geraldine Mills, executive director of the Arlington Historical Society. &#8220;I
