Pearl Harbor Remembered

[nachoman]

Ralph said something that made me laugh. In my middle and high school history classes, the lack of coverage of WWII and later was entirely due to long-winded teachers. I think they had a goal of getting to the end of WWII by the end of spring semester, but realized when they were only to the American Civil war on April 1st, they had to speed things up a bit . In world history, the endless procession of kings and monarchs slowed us down. In US history, we spent half the year just getting through colonial times and the revolution.
