Fireman First Class Nicoles' remains were recovered from the USS Oklahoma and interred as an Unknown at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, Honolulu. The USS Oklahoma was sunk on the morning of Dec 7, 1941, when a fleet of Japanese carriers launched formations of dive bombers, torpedo planes and fighters against the vessels moored at Pearl Harbor. F1C Nicoles' remains were among those Unknowns disinterred from the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in 2015. As a result of the advances in forensic and analytical capabilities, F1C Nicoles' remains have been accounted for.
F1C Nicoles' name is permanently inscribed at the WW II Courts of the Missing at the Honolulu Memorial, National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific.
