Sunday, December 7, 1941, Day of Infamy

[Jim Wright]

My father piloted a B24 on 45 combat missions over the Pacific but I still believe there are other places for this post. If we decide to ignore Terry's instructions concerning proper topics even for one as noble as this, we are not far from reading about compounds, blackpoder arms, hunting dogs, religion, politics, divorces, etc.., etc.. just like the other prominent traditional archery website.

December 7, 1941 and September 11, 2001 are two days of infamy.

Both remind us of two unprovoked attacks against us and our way of life.

Please remember those whose lives were lost on this day in Pearl Harbor all those years ago.

God bless,Mudd

So to keep this archery related, here is the knife my other great uncle George carried aboard the USS Hornet and participated in the battle of Midway and the Doolelittle raid.

She was torpedoed and sunk and my uncle was believed to be one of the last aboard to abondon ship as he served at the purser guarding the safe.

When he did leave his ship he carried this trusty western boot knife that was popular with soldiers.  I carry it on the occasional bowhunt.

Never Forget!! Salute and Thank you to all who have, are or will serve!

As it has been said several times, we must never foget those who have fallen for our country.

I've served with and have lost several friends and fellow soldiers that paid the ultimate price.

NEVER FORGET!!
