I've never forgotten that and never sanitized the fresh tanks in any of our RVs. If the water has sat too long, I drain it and refill it.
100% vomit free.
Your Dad should have drain and flushed the tank before you took your first drink. :B

Chlorine disappears basically 4 ways. Time, UV / air exposure, chemical neutralization or dilution.
Since the system is not really exposed to open air and sunlight, you can either wait, use dechlorination tabs (sodium sulphate, vitamin C , etc) or dilute it.
When disinfecting pipelines I use dechlorination tabs.
Small quantity like a Camper water tank, just fill and drain a couple times.
FWIW, google is your friend here. You can learn a lot about this with a little research.

Be sure to open a hot faucet before removing the water heater plug. There could be a lot of pressure there if you don't open a faucet first.

Also no need to open release valve on water heater, just open a hot faucet when draining the tank.
