HONOLULU, HI—CNN and other mainstream news outlets are reporting on a "tragic, completely accidental" boating accident at Pearl Harbor. As details still come in, CNN is urging people to not rush to judgment or assign blame until the story goes away in a few days.
"Such a tragic and completely accidental boating accident," said one news anchor. "The thing that's so sad about it is the tragic, totally random accidentalness of it. Our hearts are with the victims and whatever. Anyway, in other news..."
Independent journalists from the scene are sending messages that this was an intentional attack by the Empire of Japan that was designed to inflict as much destruction and casualty as possible. Such messages have been dismissed as unfounded and racist, and likely linked to recent increases in anti-Asian hate crimes.
"We do not need to investigate this any further, or talk about it ever again, as it was an accident," said the local Police Chief in a press conference. "Any talk of motive is unhelpful at this time. I think what's really important is allowing our Pearl Harbor community to heal."
CNN then quickly transitioned to a news story about the latest Cary Grant movie.
“I can’t blame your Dad for not wanting to talk. Sean Hannity’s radio show used to have a regular caller named Marty who called in near the end of his show. Marty was a actual D-Day veteran who passed in 2008.
One day, Sean asked Marty if he could relate any details of his D-Day experience. Marty refused, except to say that sometimes he would think about it and end up bawling. And that was the end of that discussion.”
Randy Pausch wrote in “The Last Lecture” about he and his brother cleaning out his parents’ house after his father passed. They found his Bronze Star in a box in his closet - he received it for is service as a medic during the Battle of then Bulge. He had never mentioned that to his family. When my son graduated from Basic at Benning, the captain read an assessment the Army had made of the youth of the day. The assessment stated (and I’m paraphrasing) that the young men were not fit to serve, they were more occupied with sports, drinking and girls. They felt that few would be of benefit if called to serve. That assessment was written in 1939, and those young men became part of the Greatest Generation.
Speaking of Yamamoto I am surprised Harvard hasn’t named a building after him, as he is an alumnus.
Surely you meant German airplanes! And no, it wasn't over then!
Too soon?
You mean the Germans attacked Pearl Bailey? History is so confusing...
My Aunt will be interred at Arlington soon. She was a Colonel, Surgical Nurse. Did 2 tours in VN, Desert Storm and also at Walter Reed and Bethesda while a Reservist. She’s the last of the Family Generation to Pass out of 5, 3 Brother’s +1 Sister.
RIP Dad, Uncles Pete and Bill, Aunt Barb and last Aunt Nancy like Your Dad all part of the Greatest Generation that saved the World from axis powers.
And now we have a bunch of scumbags trying to ruin America and the World.

What a career. You know he knew a thing or two because he’d seen a thing or two. WWII, Korea, Vietnam. Damn.
