Don't forget ... if you fly the Stars & Bars ... to fly it at half mast on December 7th.

Help drive your local leftists further off the edge. ;)

I always have a way of commemorating the day at work - ask the soldiers what is the significance of this date.
My dad was a submarine skipper with his sub (Sculpin) in Manila. It was assumed that the first attack would be at Manila, so all subs were completely ready to pull out with a 30 days supply of rations. But Pearl was bombed and the ships pulled out of Manila. My dad found that his sub had a 30 day's supply of SPAM - the kind that comes in cans. He lived on coffee and Hershey bars for the next 30 days and never allowed Spam in our house. The young officer who stocked the Spam never heard the end of it, I'll bet.
