Today is the anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, that led to the loss of many American lives on Hawaii, and many more in the Pacific War that followed.
The fighting during the Pacific War was as brutal as anything during WW1 and comparable to the Russian losses on the Eastern Front.
But the US and its allies succeeded, with the atomic bombs (and Russian attacks) forcing Japan to an unconditional surrender.
We should never forget and pay tribute to all those who fought, died or survived.
