Thanks for posting that 22. May the younger generations never be taught to forget the sacrifices and courage that were so common then.

If you ever visit Pearl Harbor and the Arizona Memorial in person, Dec. 7 will never again be the same for you. I highly recommend it.

I'll second that. I had the honor to be stationed at the Marine Barracks at Pearl Harbor during the 50th anniversary of the December 7th attack. I have been to the memorial dozens of times for ceremonies, firing details, ect., and each time the experience was every bit as moving and reflective as the first. The Arizona Memorial is a must see among American historical sites.
