Today is December 7th, 2005, the 64th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Have you thanked a veteran lately?
Remember, the Greatest Generation is dying off rapidly, get their stories NOW while you still can. People who were 18 in 1941 are 82 now.
One thing that has always struck me is that the men who served in World War II were just ordinary men. My Dad's last job before he was disabled was as a crane operator. I knew a man who was a Pearl Harbor survivor, he sold costume jewelry at the local indoor flea market. I met a vet last Memorial Day in Cape May, NJ, he was selling a book of poems he's written over the years. Men who did the job they had to do, then went home, picked up their lives, got jobs, and started families.
