This question has come up twice on these boards. Both times, I've said I'm a bit sad that Pearl isn't better remembered. Both times, someone's felt the need to point out that my stance is somehow narrowly American.
My grandfather's ship was torpedoed, capsized, and sank at Pearl. I think I'm allowed to wish the day better remembered without being jingoistic.
