Ridgewood NJ, Today we’re reflecting on that infamous day in 1941 at Pearl Harbor. More than 2,400 American lives lost, 1,000 U.S. military and civilians wounded, 21 ships of the U.S. Pacific Fleet were sunk or damaged, 188 U.S. aircraft destroyed and 159 U.S. aircraft damaged.
Today “A date which will live in infamy.” 74 years later, and we honor their sacrifice.
74 years ago America was attacked at Pearl Harbor and America’s greatest generation responded with a courage and resolve that the world had never seen before. Today we remember the attack on Pearl Harbor. December 7, 1941.
