One, it's been 69 years....Not near so many folks still around that were adults in December of 1941. Two, they didn't call it the bombing of December 7th....However, they DID call it 9/11. It'll be a lot easier to recall the date when it's been 69 years since that horrible day.
So....without looking it up, tell me the day the first shots were fired in the Revolutionary War? What date did the south surrender in the Civil War? What day did the US enter WWI? Are those dates any less significant in US history than the bombing of Pearl Harbor? Have those events been forgotten? (no) But the DATES aren't etched in peoples memory like the date "9/11".
The bombing of Pearl Harbor was a VERY important day in our history. There are dozens of days in US history that shouldn't be ignored, and are arguably just as important. Every single one of them makes us what we are as a nation.
It's up to those of us who recall the importance of those DATES to remind those who don't remember.
