Eventually the saying, and the cartoon character that often accompanied it, came to represent America's presence throughout the world. Today, it remains a whimsical symbol of the momentous achievements of an entire generation of Americans during the 20th century's darkest hour. As we enter the year 2000, the 1940s remain one of the most pivotal decades of the 20th century.

Hartman ~~ I t is highly likely that Franklin Roosevelt, desperate to get into the war to aid Britain, but constrained by heavy American isolationist pressures, allowed Pearl Harbor to occur, fully aware of all the warnings and intercepted code messages that flooded Washington prior to 12/7/41. We know this in part because of a diary entry made by then Secretary of War Harry Stimson, dated 11/25/41, following a White House meeting on the subject, which included this sentence: "The question was how we should maneuver them (the Japanese) into firing the first shot without allowing too much danger to ourselves." Roosevelt was evidently convinced by the Navy that Pearl Harbor was impregnable. It was contemporary Navy opinion that any attacking enemy force Read More Go to Site Remembering Pearl Harbor Votes:0 Please click on my sponsors to help keep this site free!!! ?????????????? ?? The Attack On Pearl Harbor It was early morning, December 7,1941. As the sun was just beginning to rise in Oahu, Hawaii, a fleet of Japanese naval air forces were taking off from their respective aircraft carriers in various locations in the Pacific Ocean. Just as many of the islanders were waking up for breakfast, it happened. The Japanese air fleet had arrived with a vengeance. No one was prepared for what was occurring. Pearl Harbor, the United States' center for military action in the Pacific Ocean, was almost completely destroyed. Anger toward the Japanese spread quickly throughout the entire country, and this anger led to the United States' entry into World War II. .

However, the half century that now separates us from that conflict has exacted its toll on our collective knowledge. While World War II continues to absorb the interest of military scholars and historians, as well as its veterans, a generation of Americans has grown to maturity largely unaware of the political, social, and military implications of a war that, more than any other, united us as a people with a common purpose. Highly relevant today, World War II has much to teach us, not only about the profession of arms, but also about military preparedness, global strategy, and combi Read More Go to Site The World at War, history of WW 1939-1945 Votes:0 --> A Military Historical Website Page maintained and created by Wilfried Braakhuis Completed: 1 Januari 1998.

Coppersmith edited by Galia Berry ©1996, All Rights Reserved For Dad: BRAVO ZULU Special thanks to Richard Grieser, Robert Sieveke, and Joseph Berry This series of letters (presented online in abridged format) by (Lt.
