December 7^th is always a day of special meaning for several Americans. A day of infamy and a day of warning that must forever remain burned into the American consciousness and even though these events happened a long time ago, threats to our very way of life remains constant. Today the world is still a dangerous place, it demands that we be ready 24-7 to meet any threat to our American citizens and our national interest.

Today and every tomorrow, we owe a debt to the men and women who gave their full measure of devotion on December 7^th and throughout War World II, time will not dim the glory of their deeds and the legacy they left behind.

As we commemorate this day, let us rededicate ourselves to delivering to future generations the same gift of security and peace that was purchase for us by those who sacrificed so much in defense of our freedom seven decades ago.

May God bless those Pearl Harbor survivors and War World II Veterans who serve as living tributes to all the things that make our nation great. And may God bless the United States of America, which will forever be, the land of the free and the home of the brave.
