We're just three days away from that fateful Sunday that launched the United states into World War II, although we had been preparing for it for quite a few years already. It was more a matter of when as opposed to if, we would join the war.
It was a mighty sucker punch and one we should have been much more prepared.
Anyway, I will be writing about it over the next several days.
Never Forgetting. --GreGen
My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.
