December 7, 1941
Franklin Delano Roosevelt made his Pearl Harbor speech the next day.
The above quote is from that speech, as we know.
Let us never forget the lives that were lost that day and the many more lives lost in World War II.

Thanks, Mike, for posting that for me.
I never succeed in posting photos, probably missing an important step somewhere.

I think most all of us had Fathers, Uncles, and or Grandfathers who fought for America in WW2. God Bless them all....

I hear that one Russ, 1 Uncle Tarawa - KIA, the other Iwo Jima - KIA, both Marines.
Father was late, and was at Camp Fuji during the occupation of Japan.
