It was my Mom's 21st birthday. Some way to remember it!

My mom was born the next day (Dec. 8, 1941).

My mom was a single girl living with a friend in a bungalow somewhere around the base of Diamond Head. It was a small island and young, attractive single women had no trouble socializing. Lots of young, single military men and she knew many of them. She was up and about that Sunday morning and heard the announcement over the radio:"This is not an exercise. Repeat, this is not an exercise." Went out on the lanai and watched in total disbelief as the bombing took place.
