Lest we forget, PEARL HARBOR, DEC 7th., 1941 . My father in law was on Wake Island under attack the same day Pearl Harbor was. It took two weeks fighting , before they were overrun by the Japanese. He then spent 4 years as a POW in China and Japan. SALUTE ! , TAPS ! SEABEE

SALUTE!

This is a war that has faded far too far from the memories, and history books, of those in this FREE country!

They woke a sleeping giant...BTW, I thought the Germans Bombed Pearl Harbor :?:
Just kidding. Have you ever watched the movie Animal House ? It was in that movie.
Some think we knew about before it happened. IMWO, It had to happen to get our great nation off our butts and do something.
Anyway, God Bless George H.W. Bush. What a send off he had. !!
He was the last President to serve in combat.
