Pearl Harbor Day

[nsane]

Today is Dec. 7th, a date which will continue to live in infamy. On this day back in 1941 the U.S. was attacked by the naval forces of Japan. Many U.S. soldiers died. This act thrust us into WWII, a war which we would go on to win.

Today we remember those who lost their lives that day. May no other event similar occur.

I would like to state that though Japan attacked us back then, we can not harbor ill feelings towards them. There are many reasons, but amongst those are the facts that most of those responsible are already dead and their descendants can not and should not bear their burden. Another reason is the war has long since ended. The biggest reason is that we have since become very close allys.

May we always remember the tragedy that took so many lives, and always remember that freedom is not free, but that it is paid for, in blood, by our troops. May we never forget.

God bless America.
