    There are so few men and women who were at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on Dec. 7th during the attack. If you know of a WW II veteran, please thank him or her for their service. Whether they served in Europe or in the Pacific theaters.

    I don't know any WWII veterans CK but I thank all who served in both the first and second world wars. Without them we wouldn't be living the lives we do today.

    My dad was there. He has been gone for 40 years now.

    We all have allot to be thankful for. Just imagine if we had no one to fight for our freedom over all these years. :eek:

    I used to know 5 or 6 people who were in WW II through the American Legion. But sadly they are all gone now. Several were POW's too. One was a POW from the Bataan Death March. One of the few survivors of it!
