Pearl Harbor was 75 years ago and the kids in the Military at that time were at least eighteen years old. The war lasted about four years and an eighteen year old kid who was drafted in 1945 is approaching 90 years old. They will all be gone in a couple of years and God bless'em.

Some were as young as sixteen, perhaps fifteen. They lied their asses off and then spent the war protecting them.

God bless all of the Great Depression and WWII folks.
