A Day That Will Live In Infamy

Well this is not really Off-Topic since it is what officially brought the US into WW2 however since most people seem to post here in the off topic thread I decided to post this here.

Dec. 7, 1941 - A Day That Will Live In Infamy and shall never be forgotten. May there souls rest in peace.

We put the German and US flags today at halfmast while I was on duty, and had a small memorial today.
