Tragedies like this tend to be forgotten with the passage of time, but this one should never be forgotten. <br /><br />Christer, you are correct because until this bombing, the U.S. was not involved in WW II. And it seems odd that the Japanese officials would not have considered the consequences of such an action.Beatrice P.

I wonder how the Japanese was thin...Terrible thing!<br />I wonder how the Japanese was thinking? Did they really believe that could do that unpunished??<br /><br />But at the same time, if this hadn´t happened Europe would most probably have lost to the Nazis in Germany.

While no one in my family was in WW II, it's still important to remember those who sacrificed such as your great uncle. You didn't mention if he was injured or killed. Hope you weather warms up a bit. It's in the high 20s and 30s here which is chilly for this area.<br /><br />Brrr Mona, 3 above is very chilly.Beatrice P.
