A day that will live in infamy!
Right there with you. Not only to commemorate those who lost their lives there, as well as throughout the rest of the war, but to open folk's eyes to history. George Santayana once said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." As someone who is interested in history purely because of an interest in politics and government, it pains me to see what is left out of teachings in public schools these days. Unfortunately, political agendas seem to interfere with facts, and all to much is left out.Waterwings said:I think it should be observed as a national holiday.
Shoot, I wish we had that. I didn't hear ONE WORD of Pearl Harbor spoken today until the end of the day, and I would expect nothing less from a Retired Marine who has been stationed just about everywhere on the planet.During the morning announcements at school this morning, they had a moment of silence for those that perished on this date during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Additionally, we always have a moment of silence for those stationed abroad in harms way after the Pledge od Allegience is recited over the speaker system throughout the school.
