DECEMBER 07, 1941

Punchbowl NMC Oahu, HI
The greatest generation that served in World War 2 and in the Korean War are passing on.  Someone who was 19 at Pearl Harbor is today 89 years of age.  It seems inadequate to say "Thank you ladies and gentlemen" to such people but we do.  Remember that Day of Infamy but also forgive.  NAUTICAL LOG has had the opportunity and honour to visit the USS Arizona BB39, USS Missouri BB63, and Punchbowl National Military Cemetery, Oahu, HI.

Si vis pacem, para bellum.

Good Watch

Please also remember the 400 of our fellow seafarers held captive by pirates off the coast of Somalia.
