64th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack
By
Today marks the 64th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor where 2,390 people were killed and another 1,178 were wounded. It seems that after 9/11 many people have seemed to foget what happened on December 7, 1941, which is a shame.
Survivors of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor will join sailors, community leaders and guests on Wednesday for the 64th anniversary of the assault. The crowd will observe a moment of silence at 7:55 a.m. — the moment the attack began in 1941. A U.S. Navy ship will honor the USS Arizona, which lies submerged in Pearl Harbor with the bodies of hundreds of sailors still aboard. The Hawaii Air National Guard will fly F-15s in formation over the harbor.
