A dozen crewmen from the USS HOUSTON ‘cheated death’ in Jan 1941. Just prior to those fateful battles in FEB, these men were transferred off the HOUSTON. All of them survived the war, although as fate demands, one (SM1c Sikkema) was taken as a POW in the PI when the USS POPE[1] was sunk.
Five were transferred for duty to the USS HOLLAND[2]. Two were sent to temporary duty in Batavia and it can only be assumed that they were evacuated to Australia but no records of such were found.
Three others took differing paths. One was sent to duty on the USS TULSA[3] which also evacuated some of the HOUSTON’s wounded from Java. One had orders to return to the USA. The last was en route to a Bad Conduct Discharge after having spent time in the prison at Cavite PI. Oddly enough, he was delivered back to the HOUSTON by the USS CHAUMONT but she eventually shuttled him back to the USA.
The one ‘mystery man’ is SM3c Raymer in that his name was stricken (retroactively on Feb 42) from the January crew roster, but it is not clear why this was so. It can only be assumed that he was transferred. The other possibility is that he was KIA in the 4 FEB turret explosion, but there is no evidence for that either. He is simply a man with a negligible electronic foot print.

In addition, SM1c Daniel Rafalovich was originally (on 3 FEB) detached to serve on the Dutch cruiser DeRutyer, but within days he was re-assigen to the TXNG as liasion. He was taken as a POW and served his time in Japan. Of course the DeRutyer was sunk in the Battle of the Java Sea on 27 FEB and seemingly went down with all hands.
========================
In total, 56 crew men (only 1 of them a Marine; Kelton George) were KIA (39) or WIA (17) in 4 FEB 42 destruction of the Aft turret. Only 4 of the WIA were successfully evacuated from Java and survived. Except as noted at the end of this list, these men died o/a 4 FEB when the Aft turret of the USS HOUSTON was struck by a bomb. Despite the horrific descriptions of the aftermath of ths bombing, none of these men were listed as MIA due to the event. Meaning that identifiable remains were recovered for all.
