My niece and her husband are stationed at Pearl Harbor.
She told me the commander asked for volunteers to escort that family, not one person volunteered....so he gave orders for escorts.

[eureka!]

Is the radiation gone from the Atomic Bomb dropped there?

It’s an election year, one of his people probably told him it would be a good idea to stop over and pay the Arizona a visit. I am sure he didn’t think of it himself.

[Tupelo]

Ain’t that just special? On a Friday even. And had to miss at least nine holes, what with getting dressed, the motorcade and all. What a leader! What a guy! What a ....
My God, I may puke.

Were they paying tribute to the dead kamikazes?

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Lemme guess! He bowed and scraped and apologized to the Japanese people and Emperor for ear damage caused to Japanese pilots flying overhead when American ships suddenly blew up below them.

Oh brother! Like they care?? How obscene and transparent is this what with Moochie at NASCAR, now Pearl Harbor and other events that they have attended like “regular folk” when we all know they used a barf bag when they got back in the car. Those 2 along with their commie minions and the corrupt press are all out in full gear ain’t they?

That commander should be “shundt” in the vernacular of the Amish. Never ask your troops to do something you wouldn’t willingly do.

“Yesterday December 29th 1941 a day that will live in infamy”.
Hmm, something doesn’t sound right.

[Churchillspirit]

How interesting....though hardly surprising.

Thanks for the info. That's actually a very heartening thing to read today. God bless our troops.

[Palladin]

That is indeed very telling.

Thanks for sharing it.

Did Moochie wear her $2000 sundress, exposing her toned biceps?
