December 14th, 1941 & August 17th, 1945. Did I guess right?

How could anyone forget the 'day that will live in infamy forever'?

I don't know when the Hiroshima bombing was, but how could I forget the date of the "day that will live in infamy".

I know Pearl Harbor was in December and Hiroshima was some time in the summer. But that's all I remember.

Well, no one answered me yet, so I had to look it up...December 7th, 1941 (off by a week)...August 6th, 1945 (off by 11 days)... oh well close enough for rock 'n' roll. BTW one of the American Presidents (can't remember which one) misquoted the "day that will live in infamy". Anyone know who? Or was it Quail?

I don't recall the exact dates but I know they're in December and August respectively and that I haven't confused the two.

Okay, I had to look that one up myself too...

I am sure that many days, including the Hiroshima bombing, will live in infamy. I don't know when either are, but if you told me the dates, I am sure I could put them in the correct order  * smile *

No, because I was married on Pearl Harbour Day.

I know when Pearl Harbor was bombed but not Hiroshima. Interesting factoid, that. And what about Nagasaki? The world never weeps for that lost city.
