      About 30 survivors and 100 other veterans of the war participated in a ceremony at a pier overlooking the USS Arizona Memorial. They observed a moment of silence at 7:55 a.m., the same minute the attack began.

      The USS Chung-Hoon, a guided missile destroyer, passed in front of the pier with its sailors “manning the rails” or lining the ship’s edge to honor the World War II veterans present.

      “They started closing that hatch. And I decided to get out of there.” A split second decision likely saved David Russell's life. Russell, 101, returned to Pearl Harbor in remembrance of the more than 2,300 U.S. troops killed in the Dec. 7, 1941.https://apnews.com/article/pearl-harbor-world-war-ii-anniversary-hawaii-d3db8d688fb1c8fcc2045c00266f3aff …

          Remember when @newtgingrich praised the Japanese on Pearl Harbor Day? "75 years ago the Japanese displayed professional brilliance and technological power launching surprises from Hawaii to the Philippines."https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/806620424796860418?t=BQ4MmcN1vjBitGVECJHF_w&s=19 …

          I mean from a tactical standpoint, they were quite well executed attacks and a decent morale victory for the Japanese. I wouldn't exactly have praised the Japanese, so much as to say they did quite well in executing their attack plan while suffering minimal casualties.
