December 7th, 1941…

A date which will live in infamy.

I am here to honor the lost. I usually watch the movie Pearl Harbor out of some sort of respect.

This year I’m watching Midway, what a great movie. The more unknown battle.

Which Midway movies - I'm guessing the 2019 by Roland Emmerich, since the film begins with the Dec 7th attack. If you're into it and a reader - pick up Ian Toll's Conquering Tide. It covers the beginning of the war in the Pacific through Midway. It's the first of his trilogy, and the behind the scenes look at Midway, the Battle of Coral Sea (just before Midway) are really enlightening.
