It seems each year everyone shrugs it off more and more, even the newspapers! I just want us to remember those great men and women who lost their lives that day,or survived helping defend this great nation. I just want to say " thanks again " and may God bless you!
With no warning the attacking planes came into sight over pearl harbor. At 7:55 AM, December 7, 1941 the first target was hit and by 9:45 AM it was all over. Behind them the Japanese left devastation as their aircraft carriers headed home to Japan. Over 2400 people died, hundreds of planes were destroyed, and a fleet containing eight battleships was ruined. With a single act, Japan woke America to the horrible realities of war. The debate that had divided Americans since the German defeat of France was decided, America would go to war. President Roosevelt received word of the attack on a Sunday afternoon and stated he would ask congress to declare war on Japan. On Monday the declaration of war was signed and one day later, Germany, Italy, and Japan declared war on the US.

And, don't forget Special Forces people Like Fred Winters, who recently died of Cancer, who would have gladly laid down his life for America.
God Bless You Captain Fred, for all you did for America.
