December 7th . . .

 

December 7th . . . just after 1:07 PM EST . . . this is what our parents and grandparents heard . . .


My father was off to build tanks at the GM plant in Flint, MI. My Uncle Victor to fly B-17s for the 8th Air Force. My Uncle Clemme to teach navigation for bombers in Mississippi. They made us all proud . . .
