Darlene, I was was on holiday in Hawaii in September 2007, and visited 'Pearl' . It really is an awesome place, it is hard to imagine the horror and suffering that took place here. Moose.
I don't know if all you folks have access to "The Military Channel" on your cable system. I pay for the digital service for that, History International and National Geographic. Any ways on Friday, Dec 7th starting at 6 pm The Military Channel will start running back to back documetaries on Pearl Harbor.This will the the first Pearl Harbor Anniversary since my friend Sue's father died. He was on the hospital ship Solaris on that day. If you've ever seen the film of the Arizona lifting out to the water when the magazine exploded, that was taken from the deck of the Solaris. I would always try to stop by there and tell him what they running that day, just to let him know that someone remembered what happened on that day.....I'm going to miss that little tradition.
