70th Anniversary

This past December 7th was the 70th anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
It was sad to learn that the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association disbanded due to the small numbers left and the difficulty of the remaining aged members have experienced in attending the meetings.
The New Haven Register interviewed local Connecticut residents asking them about their memories of Pearl Harbor Day. Like the day President Kennedy was shot, people remember where they were and what they were doing when Pearl Harbor was struck.
