The current iteration of the band (always Jimmy Newquist, but has included a variety of other bandmembers over the years) just released a new cd online only and had release parties in Wisconsin, Utah and Oklahoma. I know a couple of the former members were from, and possibly still live in Tulsa, and you'll sometimes find the band crediting themselves as being from Tulsa. The local Alt-rock channel plays "Sullivan" quite regularly.

They had all insisted on serving together on the same ship. Although the accepted Navy policy was to separate family members, the brothers had persisted and their request was approved. It was later learned, through survivors' accounts, that four of the brothers died in the initial explosion. The fifth, George Thomas, despite being wounded the night before, made it onto a raft where he survived for five days before succumbing either to wounds and exhaustion or a shark attack.

I love the song and being ex navy it really hits home. It brings a tear to my eye and goose bumps to my arms.
