You’ll really need to fix either those darn history books as they (and my late father) seem to state that:
Japan bombs Perl Harbor - December 7, 1941
US declares war on Japan - December 8, 1941
Germany declares war on US - December 11, 1941
But those darn history books keep insisting that Germany invaded Russia on June 22, 1941.
I stand by my original post.
Germany declared war on us first.
.
Sorry—I was right on some of the post but dead wrong on the invasion of the Soviet Union.
Mea culpa !!!!!!!!!!
.
So why wait until Dec 7 to declare war?
