National Pearl Harbor remembrance day
I've never been to the Arizona memorial myself but it's on the list. |

I'm glad there is a memorial there so that future generations can see the sacrifice given by so many.

It's been 30 years since we were there and at that time, there were still a number of survivors working at the memorial. It was an experience I'll never forget.

On the same note, I watched a Netflix documentary called "Spitfire" The plane that saved the world. I encourage all of you to see it. It was an awesome history lesson, as well as just plain cool. |

I have been to the USS Arizona memorial and it is a solemn and a place of honor to the men who died during that attack. May God bless all of our military past present and future who defend this great country and protect our freedom. Remember freedom is not free.
