Dec 7, 1941: A date which will live in infamy.

[HoneyBadger]

Let us remember this day in history, the men and women lost, and the reasons we went to war.

It is my belief that the three greatest lessons we needed to gain from the successful attack on Pearl Harbor, HI were:

1) To remain ever vigilent/never let our guard down.
2) Even if we choose to remain uninvolved, ensure we are fully prepared to engage an enemy successfully.
3) In the face of evil, if we are to survive, we are not always given a choice whether we will fight or not.

... and sadly, we have clearly not learned these lessons after Pearl Harbor or 9/11.

I'm watching Pearl Harbor: 24 Hours After on The History Channel ... what a piece of crap. I'd say it should have been titled Why You Should Idolize FDR since that's about 3/4 of the material.

I haven't been to the memorial since 1981; I need to get back there soon. My dad is a WW II vet, and he definitely has a different perspective on things.
