I was 6 years old sitting in my grandmothers kitchen with one of my uncles who was on military leave.

They didn't say Pearl Harbor had been attacked but there was a repetative message coming from the radio that said:" All military personell regardless of your present assignment report back to your last duty station immediately."

The kept saying this over and over and my uncle left and I didn't see him for 5 years. - Tom

My sisters husband was in the Air Force, stationed in England. He was a member of the ground crew that maintained the bombers that bombed Germany(Twelve oclock high movie). He did not like to tell of the wounded and frozen bomber crews he he helped remove from the tattered planes after they returned from their missions.We laid him to rest two years ago. These heros who are passing away did this Country such a service, they will be remembered always.
