Welcome to Beyond the Call, where history, leadership, and heroism come alive. Today’s episode explores the extraordinary story of Donald Kirby Ross, a man whose actions during the attack on Pearl Harbor set the standard for courage under fire. As the USS Nevada came under relentless Japanese attack, Ross fought not on the deck or at the guns, but deep in the dynamo rooms, keeping the ship’s power flowing against impossible odds. Twice overcome by heat and smoke, and twice revived, he returned each time to his post until ordered to leave.
