Pearl Harbor Day

Posted by TuffNuts - December 7th, 2023


On the 7th of December 1941, the Empire of Japan attacked the U.S. naval base Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. The attack began at 7:55am local time and resulted in the deaths of over 2400 U.S. servicemen. It was day that brought American into WWII. When making a speech before Congress requesting a declaration of war against Japan, President Franklin D. Roosevelt described that day as "a date which will live in infamy."


Today marks the 82nd anniversary of that infamous date. Most of those who have survived the attack on Pearl Harbor have passed away. Living memory of that day passes with them. But it doesn't have to pass from memeory entirely. We can look back and remember those who were there that day.
