Operation
"Enduring Freedom" |
The cowardly attacks on
the United States that took place on September 11, 2001 were
unprecedented. The only event that came close was the December 7,
1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. But it's objectives were military - not
killing innocent civilians and instilling fear in a nation. In the
wake of the attack Admiral Yamamoto, who planned and executed it, was
congratulated by his officers on such a stunning surprise and such a great
victory. The Admiral replied, "I'm afraid all we have done is awaken
a sleeping lion and fill it will rage and resolve." Most certainly
that is the result of the September 11th attacks.
The men and women of SAC defended our nation during the
trying days of the Cold War. The passing years have certainly done
nothing to weaken their love for our country, their patriotism, and
their determination that it be defended. Many of our visitors have
expressed tremendous support for our forces, who in many cases are their
sons and nephews. This new section has been established as a means
for us to show that support. |
