On this episode I discuss Pearl Harbor.  This is not an episode dedicated to detailing the tragedies that occurred that day, but rather I dive into the history of the US Armed Forces presence in Hawaii leading up to 1941, a brief timeline of events that transpired, the US and world response to the attacks, and the remembrance that should never be forgotten.
