Title: Dec 7th
Post by: **DONOTDELETE** on December 07, 2007, 08:50:00 AM
Went out this morning and saw about 20 tree rats, No Deer... As I was sitting I was think about this Day... Dec 7th, the year 1941 How this day went from a day of tears for the lost of so many Service Men/Women. My Heart goes out to all that Fell This Day...   :pray:  


God Bless America & Those that gave Their Life for Freedom....

My father in law was at Schofield Barracks on Dec 7th and I had an uncle who was on a ship in Pearl Harbor that day; they both survived, but had stories to tell. There aren't many living Pearl Harbor survivors around, but if you know one give him a salute on this "Day of Infamy".

I heard ken burns on the radio doing an interview and one thing he said struck me.   he was imploring people who have relatives/acquaintances that are WWII veterans to record them on video or audio telling their stories.   he said we are loosing that at a rate of something like a thousand a day....

and it would be a shame to let their stories go with them.

I know some survivors of that day. Some were military, some were civilians that day. All are amazing people.
I salute them, All!
