A Day That Will Live In Infamy

For many of us yesterday was just another day.  But for many, especially those that were involved or lost loved ones on December 7, 1941, it is a day that stands out on the calendar.  With the attack on Pearl Harbor, it brought the United States into World War II when it declared war against Japan.  Britain and Canada also declared war on Japan. In Sedalia, Housel Park, located at Howard and Hurley Streets, is named after Navy StoreKeeper 1st Class John James Housel who was stationed on the USS Arizona during the Pearl Harbor attack.  We mentioned the story this morning on the show. Many never knew that this park was named after the war veteran.  We appreciate all the veterans who served during this horrific attack and say thank you, as we do to all veterans who have served and are now serving.
