(quoted from post at 07:19:19 12/07/14) I was thinking of my grandfather that was there.Still have a picture of one ship trying to get out of the harbor he gave me. Said he saw the Arizona jump out of the water. Everyone said he was seeing things. Later photos showed he was telling the truth.
Sadly in today's world most have no idea what those guys went through. Are care.
My father joined up in 1944. Navy Fleet tug. Got through the Kamakazi attacks with only a few wounds.Never really talked about it until later in life.
(quoted from post at 09:55:17 12/07/14) The HECK those men went through is unimaginable. They ALL deserve the utmost respect. It is sad that there are getting to be very few left. We need their council on today's issues.
I hope and PRAY that we are vigilant but my gut tells me we are not as prepared as we should be.
The scary thing to me is that we seem to heading toward having the same thing happen to us again. The political class want to police the world but with a smaller and smaller military.
I trust China about as far as I could throw them. An Russia is getting full of themselves again. Then you add in this nnalert State group and you have a world that is just about as dangerous as it was in 1941.
(quoted from post at 18:50:55 12/07/14) The bombing of Pearl was forgotten many, many years ago. That is why they are buying Japanese cars and equipment, because they do not care what the Japanese did in 41. Every time that Japanese car or piece of equipment is started up they are saying Thank You to Japan.
(quoted from post at 12:04:56 12/08/14) Of all the wars you mention how many were sneak
attacks, at 8:00 on a Sunday morning. In WW I
and WW II Germany had the decency to warn us to
stop doing something that was benefiting their
enemy and we continued.
We even warned Japan that something terrible
was going to happen if they did not sign a
peace treaty. After the first present was
delivered by air mail on August 6th and they
did not want to sign, they were told they would
get a second gift by air mail, and they made a
bad decision. It was too bad they did not have
a plane that would fly or a ship that would
float in August of 1945.
I refuse to say thank you to Japan, many
Americans say thank you every time they start
their Japanese car, motorcycle, boat motor or
piece of equipment, your choice.
There is a movie based on a true story about
what happened when the Japanese invaded Guam.
The movie is No Man Is An Island. Watch it and
see the nice Japanese at work.
