"It was said to me...”The only reason no other nation has invaded the US is because they all know we are individually armed.”

You may be referring to Yammamoto's quote when asked about invading America. He said he wouldn't do it because there would be a rifle behind every blade of grass. It's never been substantiated that he said that. Even if he didn't, it's truthful and it's also a pretty good line.

Speaking of Yammamoto...”Toro-Toro-Toro”..and “Pearl harbor” are in my movie Library...as well as various other war films. Though I’m a gal I raised men so your selections for movies and TV was very limited at best... I grew to love war pictures and action films...especially when based on true happenings.

Yammamoto was not a foolish man. But as was also said Japans actions woke up a sleeping giant. I sometimes think our government is still asleep at the wheel in the dangers our country faces. It’s not business as usual.
