and pray it never happens again With modern satellite monitoring technology it would be impossible to stage a major surprise attack like that again. RIP to the civilians and military personnel who died on that day.

A modern surprise attack would begin digitally/electronically, followed by by actual physical means of attack which due to the earlier electronic attack may not be detected or if detected may not be effectively countered. Always be vigilant, that is the lesson of Pearl Harbor paid for by the lives of 2403 Americans.

I'm going to guess that somewhere, today, "Tora, Tora, Tora," will be playing on T.V.

It will be forgotten. Trafalgar Day is now largely unknown in Britain. Yet Guy Fawkes Night is still a thing.

Yet Guy Fawkes Night is still a thing. Because it's an excuse to get drunk and party!

Yet Guy Fawkes Night is still a thing. Because it's an excuse to get drunk and party! And make things go BANG! what's not to like? I sold the idea of Guy Fawkes night to my wife saying it was our national burn a catholic day* This year has been the first year we have both been in Scotland on the 5th of November, it was so cold wet and miserable that there were very few fireworks going off *just as an aside, my wife is catholic and I'm church of Scotland (non practicing)
