Don't forget about tomorrow Ladies and Gents. It's a day very near to my heart.
One of my sailors today I asked her--and she makes me feel old...
18yrs old if she is a day, not a moment older--I asked her what was
significant about tomorrow. She had no idea. I can say it is sad
that someone in this day in age can give you a complete rundown of
every season of "Friends" but doesn't know what December 7th is,
however I cannot FATHOM (wink wink) the concept of someone serving
their country in the NAVY and not know about Pearl Harbor.
So my young sailor is going to give her shipmates a 20 minute oration
on the significance of tomorrow. I am not that mean, but the Chief
Petty Officer that also heard her say she didn't know what it meant,
IS that mean.
I have some very heartwrenching photos of the day of the attack if
anyone would like to see them. If it's one or two I can email them
but if it alot I will throw them up on photobucket or something.
