Let's not forget what happened this morning, many

years
ago.

Douglas King, ex-BT1(SW) USN


Right on. And, we didn't invade Mexico as a result.



We should have.




Why? Did your gardener quit?



My gardener is Canadian. Can't understand a word he says,
but he knows how to trim bushes, eh.

A noble gesture indeed! But you failed to occupy the place, now look at the
mess!

It's all Canada's fault!!!

Amen!

You people don't seem to remember to well.

The Japs attacked us at Pearl Harbor, in the Pacific and we invaded
North Africa.

Yeah, and we declared war on Hitler after he declared war on us, Hitler and
Japan being aligned. What's your point?

My point Jon, is the number of friends I lost to the Japs in the Pacific
while we were fighting in the European Theatre and retreating all over
the Pacific Theatre.

Which enemy of the Axis Powers was it that actually Attack us? I can't
ever remember Germany or Italy ever attacking American Territory. It
seemed to me at the time we were concentrating on the wrong enemy, I
still feel the same after 66 years.

That Jon is; "MY POINT"

Japan.

They attacked our allies, and their allies attacked our territory.






I'm Horvath and I approve of this post.

A rather stupid question Jon, Your saying the Jap weren't the enemy that
Hitler was? I don't remember Hilter's forces killing American
civilians but I do know the Japs did. At Pearl and after in the
Philippines!

I guess it's time for me to ask;"What's your Point?"

You don't have to answer. I'll not continue to discuss this issue with
you. I know now you considered those deaths in the Pacific expendable
lives so that we could save England's ass.

As the English were so guick to say about Americans; Over paid, over
sexed and over here. I'm afraid it's something I lived.
