I know that I have posted this photo before. But I really like, it. Plus it is the only digital photo that I have, of my grandfather, during WWII (lower left). I didn’t write anything, this year for Memorial Day. So I thought that I would take a second and say something on Pearl Harbor Day.
If you have ever visited Pearl Harbor, then you have felt the reverence that still exists there, to this day. The Memorial has a mantle that has immortalized the honor of those soldiers who lost their lives that day, December 7, 1941. I can’t even imagine what it would have been like to be there.
I have looked at the photos of the aftermath a thousand times; those black and white images of the capsized and burning fleet. They truly were the greatest generation.
As a side note: Pearl Harbor day is also my little niece, Maya’s birthday. Happy birthday Maya!

Nice photo of your grand dad. Mine was in the Navy…. Thanks for reminding me of the day. Mike and I visited the site several years ago – really humbling.
