Fred... Interesting that you and I both were in a movie theater that fateful day, December 7, 1941 and had similar experiences with the manager stopping the film. (We called it a "Picture Show"....not "movie"). I don't remember the name of the show though anymore. juanita ks > I was in a movie theater when suddenly the movie stopped an and > announcer from the theater began "the President of the United > States------ Announcer went on to describe Pearl Harbor and that we > are now at war. > > Memorable moments of one's life. > > Fred, Sr. > > -----Original Message----- > From: gen-newbie-bounces@rootsweb.com > [mailto:gen-newbie-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of > bruce.mckown@wavelinx.net > Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2011 5:48 PM > To: gen-newbie@rootsweb.com > Subject: [GN] Pearl Harbor--Who remembers? > > How many remember what they were doing that day so many years ago.

Juanita, it was called _picture show_ back then! I had forgotten until you wrote this note. Nor do I recall the name of the movie I was watching! Coincidences! But, I will never forget the tone of that announcer's voice as he began his speech--- Fred, Sr. -----Original Message----- From: gen-newbie-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:gen-newbie-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of juanita Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2011 7:54 PM To: gen-newbie@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [GN] Pearl Harbor--Who remembers?
