69 Years Later, These Images Are Still Haunting
Pearl Harbor was attacked 69 years ago today. My grandfather and grandmother were both there that day (he in the Navy), and managed to survive the attack, but I do know if you were to show these images to either one of them (my grandfather passed away when I was a teenager), it would undoubtedly bring back memories they'd rather not have.

My grandfather was born and raised in Wisconsin. When they found out where he was stationed when he graduated from Officer's training (in 1939) they had to look it up, as no one he knew had ever heard of Hawaii.
