Baldderdash! The attack on Pearl Harbor occurred on a Sunday, so reports of it could not have appeared in a South Carolina newspaper that morning. The attack had not yet occurred when a South Carolina Sunday School was meeting that day.
I remain incredulous at the ignorance of journalists.
Mr. Stoney said: “The big headline: The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, and it was an extra edition,”
As an extra edition, it was probably a special evening edition of the morning newspaper that he remembers seeing 76 years ago. Also, back then, Baptist churches were likely to have had both Sunday morning AND Sunday evening services; thus it could be an evening Sunday school discussion he recalls.
