All must remember this date as it is the worst day in the history of the country. dec. 7th 1941 I was only three and don't remember it but did remember some of the war things after that. I was in Pearl Harbor in 1959 and 1960 the Utah was still on the beach on her side. The place still showed signs of the Japanese bombing, you could see the coning tower of the Arizona lying there on the bottom. I will never forget what I saw back then. As a Navy guy it really puts the danger of the service right before your eyes. I almost lost everything in 1960 just off Subic Bay Philipines in a huge Typhoon 200 MPH winds and waves breaking over the bridge that 80 ft above water level. That was the worst 5 days of my life. So remember the Boys who were there on Dec 7th 1941.
