Parents were Stefan Dombrowski (1892-1978) and Sofia Siarkowska (1895-1951) of Kansas City, MO and apparently the last name was changed. Crew member on the USS Oklahoma.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1, 2019 — Marine Corps Reserve Pvt. Ted Hall, killed during the attack on the USS Oklahoma in World War II, was accounted for on Jan. 16, 2019.

On Dec. 7, 1941, Hall was assigned to the USS Oklahoma, which was moored at Ford Island, Pearl Harbor, when the ship was attacked by Japanese aircraft. The USS Oklahoma sustained multiple torpedo hits, which caused it to quickly capsize. The attack on the ship resulted in the deaths of 429 crewmen, including Hall.

In 2015, DPAA disinterred remains from the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, known as the Punchbowl, in Honolulu.

DPAA is grateful to the Department of Veterans Affairs for their partnership in this mission.

Hall's name is recorded on the Courts of the Missing at the Punchbowl, along with the others who are missing from World War II. A rosette will be placed next to his name to indicate he has been accounted for.
