"A date which will live...in infamy"
Anybody here remember it firsthand?
There must be very few actual vets left who were there, and the number gets smaller every year.

Wow....68 years. It's so odd to me to realize how long ago it was. Obviously with history study we all know the dates. But it was always something that I remembered from my grandfather as his youth. He and his two brothers all went to Leavenworth together because once drafted they refused to fight in WWII. So it was just one of those things that happened when he was a kid. But now he's gone, as are many of the vets, and it's something that slips a little further away each day, yet the aftermath remains.
