Default Re: Pearl Harbor Day

Times they have changed, now everything our Government tries to do becomes a political firestorm. During WWII, EVERYONE cooperated with rationing, scrap drives, blackout drills and such for the greater good of the Nation. Can't blink at anyone funny or you'll get sued these days, someone protests their feelings got hurt. Different times.


God Bless them for all their efforts, all their cooperation and all their sacrifice.

Agree - the ability for these times to be different and for us to have the freedoms we value so greatly was earnt by that greatest generation
I salute them all!
