I never forget this day

How can we forget. So many sorrows for our Freedom. How can we relate to those who paid the price?

Re: A Day That Will Live In Infamy

I have always been fascinated with the documentary's about these kinda things but to actually get to stand on the Memorial is something I'll always remember & cherish. Watched 1 about Pearl Harbor about 2 weeks before we went around 2003 & to stand there & think what went through there minds at the moment of attack is almost unfathomable & I'm sure some of them were in the same position at 1st.

On December 7th, 1941 our nation was savagely attacked by the Japanese on a beautiful Sunday morning at Pearl Harbor Hawaii. We lost over 2000 men and women as a result of this attack. Many who were alive on that day have left us and with the passing of time the gravity seems to lessen. But, it's very important that we NEVER forget and honor this day, if only for a moment of reflection. Those who died in that attack and throughout WWII for our freedom, prosperity and way of life in the conflict that the attack precipitated deserve just a moment from us.

Well said, Kenny. We get so wrapped up in the busy-ness of life, especially with the Christmas season upon us, that it’s easy to let history slip our minds. Thank you for posting this reminder, and may God bless the families of all those who made the ultimate sacrifice on that day.
