Remembering Pearl Harbor

As you no doubt know by now, today marks the 70th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. There are many, many good resources out there about the attacks, its consequences for the United States and the war. Here are a few available on the web:

• From the History Channel: 5 Facts About Pearl Harbor. For instance, did you know that oil is still leaking from the U.S.S. Arizona?
• An blog post/article on NPR with links to stories by survivors.
• From NewsOne, an article with some facts about African-American soldiers at Pearl Harbor, and the response of the African-American community to the bombings.
• President Obama's 2010 Presidential Proclamation for Pearl Harbor Day.

 And of course, you can always visit your local library for books and articles.
