  1. My dad was at Hickham field in Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked. He didn't talk about it until a few years before his death. He died in 2012 at the age of 92. Definitely not the last but he did outlive quite a few and when he was gone I felt a piece of history died also.

  2. Yes, Custer, one of our more infamous military leaders. Ironically, he served with distinction and honor in the American Civil war but at the Little Big Horn, he made every possible mistake that a military officer could make. - He split his forces...twice. - The individual units were out of touch with each other. - He underestimated the enemy strength and resolve. - He overestimated his own battle capabilities. - He had no retreat/escape plan. - He had no strategy of attack. - He had no knowledge of enemy location. - He had lack of knowledge of the surrounding terrain. Just a small list.😅
