Today, on Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, we pause to honor the service members and civilians whose courage changed the course of history. Their stories remind us how powerful devotion, resilience, and love of country can be.

If you have a family member who served during World War II, we’d be honored if you shared their name or a short story about them in the comments so we can remember together.
