The Forties is not merely a decade, but a decade of massive changes that would influence the world for the next fifty years. Events such as WWII, the homefront, American industry leads the way, radio reigns, women take the mens place on the assembly lines, swing music, atomic bombs, postwar housing, baby boom, an American new role in the world.

My message is to my generation and the next. Don't be so quick to shove grandpa and grandma into a nursing home. Sit down with them. Listen to them. Hear their stories. The greatest generation. We are cut from a different cloth and we're losing many too fast.

We should never forget the soldiers who protected our country during WWII when our country was attacked by the Japanese on December 7, 1941.  Within two hours 18 warships, 188 aircraft and 2,403 servicemen were lost.   First attack by the "kamilkaze" was 1944 at the Philippines.  Atrocious torture was effected by the Japanese on our troops and others. Japan has denied everything. In their history books and in their school books, they have re-written history in an effort to falsely show they were the victims of the War, citing the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as proof of their victimization. The Allies had delivered Japan an ultimatum to surrender on 28 July 1945. When this was ignored, the US dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima on 6 August and Nagasaki on 9 August 1945 which ended  WWII through the Japanese surrendering on September 2, 1945. The United States of America will never back down from tyranny and terror. 



POTPOURRI
An 85 year old World War II veteran who dropped out of high school to enlist in the Naval Reserve was awarded an honorary diploma in a surprise ceremony  Thill deployed to Hawaii in January, 1941. He was stationed on the destroyer USS Ward and was part of the crew that fired the country's first shots in the war, sinking a Japanese submarine as it tried to enter Pearl Harbor in the early morning on December 7, 1941   

CONSTITUTION  OF  THE  UNITED STATES
Treason:  Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States. [United States Code, Title 18, Part 1 Chapter 115, paragraph 2381].

United States Code,  Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171, During rendition of the national anthem when  the flag is displayed, all present  except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart.














"There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
