It just seems as if it doesn't matter anymore and just another day gone by.

I find this sad and disconcerting as history tends to repeat itself as it is so prone to do because people forget.

On this day the United States of America lost over 2300 in the military to a cowardly attack.

It was an act that drew us into a world war as a whole that we were loath to become involved. The greatest military machine in the world resulted from this action.

I often wonder if something similar happened today, what would happen..........

So thanks to he boys and girls who serve and always remember to never forget, because there are still some of us out there who won't.

 

I'm born and raised in Hawaii. Hell no, I'll never forget about about Dec. 7th.

 

there was no inspection in ROTC today because colonel and sergeant would both be gone, but yesterday colonel encouraged us to wear BDUs in remembrance of pearl harbor... to say the least i was disappointed when i was pretty much the only one in uniform. i'll never forget this day nor the one after it... RIP those who died at pearl harbor, thank you to those who lived to serve another day and those who serve now.

 

Glad to hear that.

At least u remembered man.


I hope I see lots more poeple before the day is done.

I was on nights this week and go right back to days sat. I get messed up over days and nites, but the date stuck in my head but didn't click until I woke up and showered this afternoon.

Glad I went to sleep with the History channel on, they remembered.

 

Not forgotten around here.

 

It is in Canada since this had little to do with us. Sorry.

 

Nope.

Sad oversight from my employer today though: It's the only place I've noticed in town who doesn't have their flag at half-mast.

 

I remembered. I always remember.

 

I wished everyone a happy pearl harbor day on Facebook this morning, surprisingly, no one responded.....

 

I remember, because it's a date I've been interested in, but yeah, Canada had already been at war for 2 years at that point.

It's a date that, unfortunately, will primarily hold significance to Americans.

 

Watching History Channel as we speak. Definitely not forgotten here.

 

Good for your unit. As for mine, we berated the NS-1s (freshmen) who raised the flag this morning for not putting it at half-mast. During class, we all had a moment of silence before starting our weekly PT.

 

i remembered because unlike other teenagers i have pride being in America unlike the other selfish teenagers who thought Vietnam took place before WW II (I am serious someone in my history class last year thought Vietnam war was before WW II) So anyways RIP to those who died 71 years ago and to all our fallen soldiers!

 

It might not be long now before the Arizona stops crying.  

 

I remembered. As a Canadian ex-pat, I'm not used to it having any importance, but I always try to remember Pearl Harbor Day, since it had a huge degree of importance to the country in which I now live.

And it's another good reason to thank all of those who currently serve, and have served, our country.

While it's good you remembered, is "happy Pearl Harbor Day" really the right sentiment?

 

Not forgotten, but it WAS 71 years ago. 9/11 probably won't be remembered as well in 60 years either.

Not that we should forget, just sayin'.

 

I always remember it , in fact to day i listened to FDR's Date of Infamy speech on you tube.

 

I always make it a point to remember December 7th and June 6th.

 

Nope. Will never forget.

I'm a WW2 history nut, so I didn't forget.
