An open letter to visitors of the Pearl Harbor Day of Remembrance website
Greetings Patriotic Citizens,
Welcome to the pearlharborday1941.com website. This website has been developed and will continue to be developed as a tribute to those who served at Pearl Harbor. My person-al motivation for creating this website is to have a resource for myself so that I can learn more about Pearl Harbor and the events of World War II and subsequent wars. I continue to be fascinated by the stories that are available from veterans and other people who were alive during the war. I was not old enough to experience the war so my exposure is solely via second hand accounts and books. There continues to be a wealth of knowledge available from various sources including veterans’ first hand knowledge and written mate-rials which would take the better part of a lifetime to absorb. My feeling is that I do not have the better part of a lifetime remaining to explore the written questions. This website puts the questions out there in hope that answers will be found. There are still stories to be told and experiences to be shared. My hope is that this website will become an out-standing resource for information about the Pearl Harbor Attack and the aftermath. As I continue to learn about the various events of World War II and other conflicts, I will com-pile this information into the website in the hope of planting a seed which will continue to grow with the help of interested readers, researchers, family members and veterans.
Thank you for visiting the pearlharborday1941.com website.
