AmericanRam Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Went to an event today to honor and commemorate the survivors and those who died during the attack.Even though a somber occasion as to be expected, I am glad I did. I talked to one of the survivors for a long time, and even to this day I could tell it weighed on him due to the impact of it and the friends he told me lost. I have great respect for those who serve in the Armed Forces and imo everyone should regardless of your personal feelings about war and the need for it or not.

King Kevin Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 The only good to come out of Pearl Harbour from a UK perspective was it brought you guys into war ,obviously from a USA angle a tragic loss of life and an act of treachery from the Japs.

I was in NYC this week and did a VR activity at the intrepid museum which was based on pearl harbour and told stories from survivor's including a chap who is still alive, I think he is 103....really interesting and opens your eyes to what happened.
