Today is National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. On Sunday morning, December 7, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service attacked the neutral United States at Naval Station Pearl Harbor near Honolulu, Hawaii, killing 2,403 Americans and injuring 1,178 others.
Today we remember those who gave their last full measure of devotion to our Nation and answered the call to defend freedom against the forces of fascism. Today we honor the 2,403 Americans who were killed in the surprise attack on #PearlHarbor in Hawaii on December 7, 1941.
@geoffschwartz The safety position is one of the most challenging and complex in all of football. Our defensive coordinator asks a lot from our safeties. We don't have the dudes there yet.
@upthascoducks I'm always nervous before a game. Very similar to when I used to actually walk on the field myself moons ago. Once the game kicks off, it changes from a nervous energy to an intense focus. My girls know not to even walk in the family room when the Ducks are on!
