Merry Christmas!
And Lo, the Angel of the Lord came upon them:
And the Angel said unto them, “Fear not For behold I bring you good tidings of great Joy which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior which is Christ the Lord.”
Luke 2:10-11
A Date Which Will Live in Infamy
Early on a beautiful Sunday morning 76 years ago, the world changed.
At 7:55 a.m local. December 7, 1941 the attack begins.
- Pearl Harbor Attack
The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor to remove what it saw as a threat to the empire’s southern expansion. The Pearl Harbor attack hurt us badly, but it also hardened our resolve and brought us fully into WWII.
Snopes has some photos that were purported to be found in an old Brownie camera years after the attack. The story was untrue, but the photos are archival and genuine.
The U.S. Navy has a Pearl Harbor site with more photos.
Chris at A Large Regular has linked to this National Geographic Pearl Harbor site in the past. It has a multimedia timeline, survivor stories, kid’s section, and more.
