The day Japan attacked the forces stationed in Hawaii. 2,335 military, and 68 civilians, were killed and 1,178 wounded. Aboard the USS Arizona, 1,104 lost their lives. Whenever we 'set sail' or re-entered Pearl, we paid homage to those souls.
My ex husband was stationed at Pearl on a submarine - Bonefish 582. A diesel boat. I spent a lot of time on the base at Pearl Harbor and always felt a sense of reverence for the lost lives there on 7 December, 1941 - years before my birth.
