Pearl Harbor Facebook response

CDF, I'm glad you posted that disturbing msg. You have more decorum than I have. I would have probably hit someone.

Just goes to show the importance of some things to people. Priorities

I love the TV show, but CBS is going find itself in a sh*tstorm over this, and rightfully so. It's going viral right now.

[cooper9411]

As it should!

Yay, something new to be pi$$ed off about. I needed something to divert my attention off of everything else that has me ready to go all Incredible Hulk.

Things on Facebook can go by VERY fast if you aren't sitting on top of it 24/7. So, no worries on that. I WAS disappointed at the History Channel's lack of coverage on Dec 7...NOTHING NEW!

Slowly but surely it is being erased from memory

That's just time marching on though. How many significant Civil War battles can you remember? Loaded question for this group perhaps, but I bet the average person on the street couldn't name a single one.

Depends on the family you grew up in...

Bein' a Southrun boy I can think of off the top of my head (With out going to Google and I'm sure I could name more...):

1st and 2nd Manassas
Winchester
The Valley Campaign
Fredericksburg
Harper's Ferry
Sharpsburg
Chancellorsville
Gettysburg
Vicksburg
Wilderness
Petersburg
Richmond
Atlanta
Pine Mountain
Shiloh
Galveston

If your family was involved and is also a family of honor and legacy I think it's more personal and you are more likely to remember. That's one of the interesting things about the WWII generation. So many did not even start talking about the war until it was nearly too late. My family knows their Civil War heritage thanks to the men passing down the stories and I intend to do the same.

Don't forget Second Cold Harbor, Grant's last fight of the 1864 campaign!
