Seventy-one years ago today, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, and changed our nation’s history:
Yesterday, December 7, 1941 – a date which will live in infamy …
No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might, will win through to absolute victory.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
December 8, 1941, asking Congress to declare war on Japan
