[ARC5] Today in History

Some time back, while visiting the USS North Carolina at Wilmington, NC, I saw a group of Japanese tourists on board who were staring at the ship's battle honors posted on the port wing of the bridge.  The Japanese had very quizzical expressions on their faces.
I wonder how much longer, in this "politically correct" world, the display of these battle honors will be allowed.  "We don't want to offend anyone...."
Here I risk annihilation (and I don't care):  Tell that to a survivor of the Bataan Death March.

    The "date that will live in infamy"  I wonder how many 
have forgotten.
