Forgetting History

[dcozzi]

That’s what we do now. Concentrate on the serious issues…like what Kardashian is dating who? What wrongfully detained athlete has to endure everyday in a foreign jail? Someone hurt my feelings…how much $$$ can I sue for?

They let that dope carrying moron out today. She will probably stay there so she can make more $$$ playing there. The Stockholm syndrome draft. A new technique they're trying out.

When we start to forget our great history as a Country, then we forget who we are as a Nation.

There was a story about in my local paper. it was mentioned on my local news today. And a story on the national news tonight. Seems jlike it was remembered to me.

Now I see some local ceremonies were held. And my FB feed was loaded with pics, etc., last night. I'm sure the cable channels that love WW2 like history had shows, but I can't confirm.

Sure seemed remembered, at least in NJ.

Bless all of those who lost their lives that day and the survivors, too.

or worse yet....re-write the HISTORY to suite a current narrative...then teach THAT! at least (the best I know) the history I was taught was the ACTUAL FACT support stuff....not some "individuals" IDEA of what happened.

along with his "buddy-system" boyhood pal Wesley, my late father HAD been stationed aboard BB-43 Tennessee for about a year, until about a week before Dec 07, when dad was transferred to the light cruiser CL-12 Marblehead (then part of the Asiatic Fleet and on station near Java). Dad's buddy Wesley barely survived the attack at Pearl. I became acquainted with him and with his son as well. Marblehead caught hell; many killed. I've met many of her crew as well during ship's reunions; until the numbers of remaining crew became so few. Sad; but I remember Proudly ! Sons such as us will likely be the last to remember; sux!
