How many of you know just what Pearl Harbor Day is all about? FDR was doing his best to keep the United States out of WWII. Then the Japanese must have decided they wanted us in the war. They picked a sure fire way to make that happen by attacking our military as well as civilians at Pearl Harbor.
Both world wars should be a warning to us all so that no one ever has to endure a WWIII.
