Pearl Harbor Day, Have We Forgotten ?

[BusyLittleShop]

Heck, even the victors can't always agree. What we call "World War Two," the Russians call "The Great Patriotic War."

True... WW2 is a subject we learned not to bring up playing WarBirds
which is a world wide interactive air combat game... you picked a 4
digit call sign (mine is XLAX) then pick a color... I flew for the
Golds... as a gold you battled against the Reds and Purples and
Greens... each of four color has its own dedicated radio channel but
the Gray channel was the community channel that could be read by all
four colors... without exception if someone mentioned "World War Two"
the gamers in Russia would counter with do you mean the "The Great
Patriotic War"??? a passionate argument would go on and on... it was
clear that the Russians gamers weren't mere kids but learned aviation
buffs like us who read about and dreamed about flying and fighting in
WW2...
