December 7, 1941

Tomorrow, December 7, 2016 is the 75th anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Sadly, my suspicion is that very few Americans under the age of 50 understand the significance of this date. It's not there fault. Schools don't teach American History anymore.

It was surprising for me to learn there still around 625,000 Americans still living who participated in WWII in one fashion or another. I thought it would be less.

Hats off to our greatest generation. They will always be my heroes.
