I received this email from a friend in Hawaii. This was written before
1947. My friends grandfather was flying a small plane for
recreational enjoyment on Dec 7, 1941, flying over Honolulu as the
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor (and the rest of Oahu) began.
Very interesting slice of life here. 3 pages. What is very
interesting also is the “denial”. They landed their plane during the
attack, got out, moved 30 planes to separate them in case of a further
attack, and then drove to the police to inform them of the attack, and
the police basically laughed at them, in denial that we could have been
attacked, especially by the Japanese.
Read it. Drop a comment.
By the way, in case you didn’t know, this is the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Please don’t put the link to your blog here. Your avatar already have the link. Occasionally you put your link here is OK, I understand, but you simply cannot do this everyday. You don’t read my site apparently so you don’t know the rule. Thanks.
