Today is Pearl Harbor Day, the day that will always be known as "the day of infamy" to those in the US. Over 2000 Americans died that day and we should never forget that or let it happen again.
I was stationed at Schofield Brks. in '69-''70 so my wife and I went to the Arizona Memorial on Dec 7th 1969, (our first wedding anniversary) and it was a trip we will never forget. We dropped flowers in the water and you could see part of the ship underwater and the tiny oil bubbles floating to the surface. And the names of all the men that died on that ship.
Today is our 37th anniversary, but the first one is the one we still talk about the most and is one of our best memories.
