Remembering Pearl Harbor
December 7, 1941
“A date which will live in infamy.” — FD Roosevelt
For as long as I can remember, I have been captured with this time in history. I love reading anything about the World Wars.
Aside from the “romance” of this time, we must remember that sixty-eight years ago today, in a brutal attack on our country, 2,335 American soldiers and 68 American civilians died and 1,178 Americans were wounded.
How sad. How tragic.
Today I’m remembering.
Great reminder for today! There are so many who gave their lives for our freedom.
Remembering here too!
Thank you for posting this. Not to many people remember or even KNOW what today's day marked in history.
Thank you!
I too have always been captivated by that time period. Thanks for the reminder!
Great reminder of what happened so many years ago.
