Lest we forget December 7th, 1941...found a photo of the US Navy Railroad at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
In addition, RMT has posted the only known original COLOR movie taken that day by a US Navy shipman. It is now on the RMT website www.readymadetoys.com

Take a moment to Remember . . .
2,403 Americans were killed and 1,178 others were wounded. 1,102 killed that day rest here, entombed in the USS Arizona, in honored glory.
Please delete this if it's wrong.
My brother came back from his second honeymoon in Hawaii and told me this story. He went on the tour of the ships in Pearl Harbor and learned about what happened. He came upon a wreath placed on one of the ships (Missouri?) to honor the Japanese grandfather who had passed away. He was a bomber who had attacked Pearl Harbor that day.
I might have the story's exact facts messed up but how is that possible? That infuriated me and I wasn't even there. Yes we need to forgive, but not forget!
Walter Thanks for posting this, Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Day of Infamy" Speech. To the Congress of the United States: Yesterday, December 7, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy
