This is neither about "politics" nor is it intended to comment in any way on current US policy.
Geez, didn't anybody else like history in school?

I did take the time to remember and in my heart I had a visit with my own relations that were there or directly affected. Thank a WWII vet today if you see one. They knew severe times and severe sacrifices so that we may not.

December 7th, 1941 was a sad day for America. We studied about it in our Americanhistory class. I will always remember what this day stands for.
