Pearl Harbor anniversary

I wanted to blog about today's anniversary because both of my grandfathers (RIP) served in WWII as did my fathers uncles as well as others in our family. I am proud of my family's history of service. Today is a day to remember that service and honor those who lost their lives on this day in 1941. We must keep the history alive because pretty soon those who lived through it will no longer be with us. We lose more WWII veterans each day. So, please take a moment to think of those who lost their lives on the "Day that will live in infamy!" and all those who fought to keep us free after our freedom was threatened that morning as some our ships sunk and killed so many sailors. Please let's teach the next generations what today December 7th is all about. Teach them how the Japanese air force sunk our ships at Hawaii's Pearl Harbor dragging us into WWII an act they would come to regret.
Here is a link to an article about the dedication of a new visitors center at Pearl Harbor. 120 survivors of the attack attended. The old center was sinking into the ground. http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/world/50828244-68/harbor-pearl-center-uss.html.csp
