The day that will live in infamy. I had a great uncle at Pearl Harbor, stationed on the Arizona. He had gone ashore on an errand, and stopped to use the WC. Heard and felt the attacks from inside the outhouse. Ran out while pulling up his drawers, looking to see his ship lighting up with bombs.

Says he said to himself, "Our world is forever changed".

The impetus that started the work of the "greatest generation" started today, in 1941.

Dave,
How anyone could forget is beyond me and yet............some seem to have already forgotten 9/11.

Take it out on the heavy bag,

Hi folks!
Mr. Parker once told of how he,as a child, saw the Japanese Zeros flying in & was almost struck and killed by a peice of shrapnel from the attack. Mr. Parker was also a model maker and specialized in making Airplanes from the WW2 period.
I hope that I was of some service,
