I cry for all of the men that were trapped aboard the U.S.S. Arizona. I would pay respect to all of the fallen men women and civilians that were killed on December 7th, 1941.
God bless RIP HEROES From France

The annual Pearl Harbor Survivors Association remembrance gathering will be this coming Monday, Dec. 7, at the Sylvester Powell Center on Martway in Mission. Starts at 11:15, ends at 1:15pm. If you can, come and meet the 4 KC survivors on the 68th anniversary of that fateful day.
A moment of silence will be observed at 11:55am, the time in KC when the sneak attack occurred; Mayor McConwell will declare a proclamation; and the SM North ROTC will present the Colors.
God Bless America.

To all you Veterans: Remember this day is "Pearl Harbour day"! I was 12 years old when Pearl went to war and I have remembered it every year since. When we go, I wonder how many will remember this day, 68 years ago! Not many I'll bet!!

Go tell the Spartans, thou who passest by,
That here, obedient to their laws, we lie.
My humble respects to the men who fought to save the world from tyranny. Also, my respects to all of those who sacrificed for the cause regardless of their proximity to the front lines. I swear I will do everything in my power to ensure as many people as I can do not forget.

Glad somebody remembered --- not one word on the radio today and I have had it on since 7 AM this morning. Local news station was busy talking football(which is my favorite sport but.......)!! Maybe 67 years was too long for them to recall it.

Wow, I actually found a ton of programming today. They had Pearl Harbor on four cable stations and it ran all day. Plus Fox News covered it too.

Here on the West coast it's still December 7th as I write this. I always watch the History channel programs about Pearl Harbor on this day, even though I have other documentaries about it. I guess watching a program like this on TV makes you feel connected to others in America who are watching it on The Day. Richard Fiske, who is featured in the program not only witnessed the sneak attack on Dec. 7, 1941, but also took part in several Pacific invasions as a US Marine, including Iwo Jima.
I do not buy into the conspiracy theory about FDR having prior knowledge of the attack and allowing it to happen...No Way!
