Never Forget Tomorrow!!

Thanks for the post but i will never need to be reminded of that day.

We should take this day to remember those that were so viciously attacked and all those that lost their lives in that World War. That generation is what this country is built on.

Prayers to those who gave their all on that day....and to their families.

Condolences to all those fine and patriotic Japanese Americans who suffered as a result of the war........

War is hell.........

I will Always Remember
 
I was a side buoy on the USS Arizona for the 60th Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

We lined up on each side of the plank leading to the memorial decked out in our whites. Our job was to stand there motionless with a sharp salute as the remaining crew made their way to their seats.

As each boat would arrive bringing more people and the crew made their way up the ramp they would stop and ask us questions about our rate and how long we'd been in. Some asked where we were from and others asked us to have lunch with them at their table after the ceremony. Then they would thank us for being there.

Imagine that...them, thanking us.

I'm sure they were thanking you for carrying on the tradition, and for defending your country.

And I thank you also.:rock:
 
I thank you also...from one sailor to another.

And Fair Winds and Following Seas to all those who have gone before me. In my heart lies the names of all those Sailors and Marines who have ever perished in the wars before mine.

Lest we forget...I will not!
