Pearl Harbor

[DJD]

FYI....Being the anniversary of this historic attack the History Channel has a show tonight that focuses on the 24 hours after the attack. Should be good to watch.

Might have to check that out. At least DVR it while watching the game. What time is it on Don?

Tim,
8pm on insight here in Lexington.

Thanks for the heads up Don...90% of the time that the only way I'll watch television anymore...DVR everything and fast forward through the commercials.

On a separate note...WWII Generation...the greatest generation of people this country has ever known in my opinion.

Amen brother! It was an honor to meet a few of these folks/veterans at Pearl Harbor while on our vacation. Just amazing what they have seen this country become from the days of WW2.

Can you imagine? Look at the technology we enjoy or are cursed with (haha) that wasn't even a thought in their minds. Fiber optics, cell phones, smart TV, computers, technology in cars, in the military and on and on.

I watched it last night, was very interesting...Had no clue that The First Lady was the first voice the American people heard from after the attack...

Plus did you all catch it, that the POTUS was treated with cocaine in order to treat a sinus problem.....

Yea I did catch that...Tylenol Allergy/Sinus medicine didn't exist back then...I sure as heck take it for granted now days.

I wish I would have known that this year marks the last and final year of the Pearl Harbor group or whatever it is...(saw this on the news). It would have been pretty cool to been at Pearl Harbor yesterday for all the ceremonial stuff.

I really enjoyed my Pearl Harbour tour and Hawaii in general. I learned alot of history from the tour and its a shame to lose that. Kids need to learn that important history hands on in person. Did the show say why it is closing down the tour?

I've never been to Hawaii, but visiting the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial is definitely on my bucket list!
