"A Date That Will Live in Infamy..."

The attack on Pearl Harbor (or Hawaii Operation, as it was called by the Imperial General Headquarters)[6] was a surprise military strike conducted by the Japanese navy against the United States' naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on the morning of Sunday, December 7, 1941, later resulting in the United States becoming militarily involved in World War II.
The attack sank four U.S. Navy battleships (two of which were raised and returned to service late in the war) and damaged four more. The Japanese also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, and one minelayer, destroyed 188 aircraft, and caused personnel losses of 2,402 killed and 1,282 wounded. (Wikipedia)

Sixty-seven years ago this morning, almost 4,000 men and women either lost their lives or were wounded as American soil was invaded by a foreign enemy. This brought the USA into WWII where thousands more men and women would lose their lives to protect our country and our freedoms. I am so very thankful to those individuals who were not afraid to take a stand for freedom...who were proud enough of their country to fight to the end...and those who knew America had a future and a hope. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your sacrifice.
