The Attack On Pearl Harbor - December 7, 1941
#8

Wonderful letter. Wish you had more...

 

This is what my friend Alyce said on Facebook.

 

I was 9 years old and visiting a farm neighbor with my family when President Roosevelt made that now famous speech about the attack on Pearl Harbor. A scary thing for a 9 year old when she doesn't know where the heck Pearl Harbor is. I was expecting planes to start bombing the farming country. 73 years ago today.
