‘A Day That Will Live In Infamy’: Pearl Harbor Remembered In Silence 79 Years Later

What I did in 2019 to mark the 78th anniversary of Pearl Harbor would be absolutely unthinkable today in 2020.

I joined a group of veterans — several of whom were veterans of the Pacific Theater in World War II — along with a few of their family members and my own fifteen-year-old daughter. We attended a special screening of the film “Midway.”

I watched these men, who were in their mid-nineties, stand tall and salute the “Missing Man” table that was set up at the front of the theater.
