It’s been 72 years since the attack on Pearl Harbor, in Hawaii. It was a surprise military strike conducted by the Imperial Japanese Navy against the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on the morning of December 7, 1941.

I think it’s important that my generation remembers the history of our nation and that our freedom isn’t free. The people that fought at this time are now in their 80s and 90s. Can you imagine what they saw and what they had to sacrifice? It’s hard for me to imagine.

I love that my husband and his family chose to fight for our country and our freedom and that he teaches us about our history. He flew the flag at half staff today in remembrance, and for this and our freedom, I am thankful. Thank you.
