Somehow, I cannot imagine people who lived through Pearl Harbor complaining because their favorite 1951 radio program was interrupted for a 10th anniversary remembrance. Perhaps that’s an index of how the threads of our culture have been pulled apart in the last couple of generations.
“people who lived through Pearl Harbor”
My folks knew some that died on the Arizona and in Honolulu. I have been fortunate to be able to see the Memorial there. Someone I used to know was part of the Ford Island Memorial designation.
My folks never, ever bought Japanese. Ever. Nor did my family take kindly to my Land Cruiser purchase.
