Pearl Harbor Attack 80 Years Ago Today
 |
The Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service attacked the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor in Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii just prior to 8 am eliminating neutrality and thrusting the Republic into World War II.
The unprovoked nature of this attack left a profound impact on the collective memory of the nation which has not been forgotten to date.

My Daddy was laid to rest on Pearl Harbor Day in 2001 at Clinton United Methodist Church cemetery at Salley, SC his home town.
The date is even more profound and an item of personal saddness in my memory for this reason.
