December 7, 1941—"a date which will live in infamy," perhaps the most
famous Pearl Harbor Day quote of all will be on everyone's minds today. In remembrance of the attack on Pearl Harbor today, President Barack Obama has issued a Presidential Proclamation as a day to honor all those who died—2,402 Americans were killed and 1,282 wounded—in the attack.
Middletown Insider staff would like everyone to take a moment to remember those who lost their lives on this day, and all veterans before and after who have sacrificed to keep us free.
If any readers know of any special memorial services being held today, please list in the comments below. Thank you.
