Battle of Midway Anniversary
« on: June 04, 2008, 10:41:09 AM »
Just a note to remind everyone that today, 66 years ago today, the U.S. Navy engaged and defeated the IJN at Midway.

Let us not forget those who gave everything for our freedom.

Not to mention the generous amount of devine intervention to let us find them first.   

This tail speaks volums in our solders bravery.
