USS Arizona survivor: Honor those killed at Pearl Harbor ahead of remembrance ceremony'The 2,403 men that died are the heroes. And we've got to honor them ahead of everybody else. And I've said that every time, and I think it should be stressed,' USS Arizona sailor Lou Conter said in a recent interview in California. This day is the anniversary of the birth of the modern America anyone would recognize today. I had seen the history about Pearl Harbour in National Geography,so terrifying, the war shipwrecked still remain under the sea, i think is the real witness from the past , that we should give a deep respect for all of this people who has take part on this history .🙏 There were many more nightmarish things with Japan's Hirohito than Pearl Harbor, the Rape of Nanking, Unit 731, Korean Comfort Women, the Phillippines & Bataan Death March, and more like slave camps they kept American & British POWs. Hirohito attended Harvard in the USA too.
