"A Date that will Live in Infamy!"

I thought I'd take a momentary study break and remind everyone, in case you had forgotten, what today's date means in history: on December 7, 1941 Pearl Harbor was attacked.

Check out the History Channel's section on this attack.

Also check out Roosevelt's speech:
"Yesterday, December 7, 1941--a date which will live in infamy--the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan." (U.S. Capitol, Washington, D.C., December 8, 1941)

That is all. Back to work!
