Fibber,

Thank you for this most important reminder. Let us never forget. Those who lose a grasp on their history will almost always repeat it. I will hold all veterans and families affected by Pearl Harbor and the war close to my heart this day. :US-flag:
 
Yes, today is Tora! Tora! Tora! Day for me, I will look this movie today. (As every Year on 7[SUP]th[/SUP] December)

Tora Tora Tora is the better Film about the Attack ( Okay, the Sinking of the Oklahoma has more Scenes ).

@ All i had create a Destroyer Alarm Sound and add this in CFS2 Sound Download Location. Its the Sound of the USS Ward from Tora Tora Tora.
 
My take away from the latter movie was that Ben Afflek won World War Two with some minor assistance from a hand full of other guys.

Good afternoon,

I am watching Tora, Tora, Tora right now, and I hate the Pearl Harbor movie. The brother-on-brother love story is ridiculous and sick. It also lost me at "P-40s can't outrun Zeroes, so don't try, we're just going to have to outfly them in our hula shirts."

The B-25 takeoff from an angled-deck carrier was also a nice touch, and I'm sure Army fighter pilots flew B-25s just for the heck of it.
 
For those that are looking for other movies involving this date. Lets not forget The Final Countdown. Its an entertaining movie.
 
I was going through the wiki page for the movie, its interesting how they modified the T-6s to look like the Zero and Val. You can still tell that they are T-6 Texans. Its also interesting to see how many Zeros are still around. There seems to be a lot of replicas as well.
 
Never forget...... What is the Name of the Airfield in the Background? Is it Ewa or Bellows Field? And yes, i have Create a Updated second Wave with the Lexington on the Utah Place ( 50 % Damaged ), the Fleeing Enterprise on Nevadas Place. And 2 Mission in First Wave. One with the 9th battleship of Pacific Fleet, the USS Colorado ( Thanks for the LOD Modell ) i hope a other good modder create LOD Modell of the PHP Ships :) , the other Mission with the Lexington
