    December 7, 1941

    A little reminder about what happened 64 years ago today.

    If you know any Vets from the Big War (or any vet or currently serving member of the AF) , let them know that we all appreciate their dedication, sacrifices and service!


    Thanks.

    Yes, Richard, my husband and I always remember. Every year we watch a movie that remembers Pearl Harbor. Tonight it's "In Harm's Way."

    Thanks for the reminder.

    BTW...My father is a WWII Hellcat pilot...in the first night landing squadrons (that is, landing on an aircraft carrier at night). He was one of many members of the invasion task force that never had to invade...

    We were talking about Pearl Harbor today in math class. Our teacher told us there is still oil spilling from the sunken ships. True?

    Small bits of oil are still coming up. I just watched a discovery channel show , they have found the last mini sub used in the attack. I don't know if the reinactment was true but very intresting. They think this one was actually in the bay at pearl Harbor. and made it out but it had a torpedo on it.
    God bless all the millarty then and now.

    Thanks for the reminder - I always remember this day because my grandfather's birthday is Dec. 6. He served in WWII, and he was under General Patton's command. He is 83 years old this year.
