(FALL SPECIAL: HONORING FAMILY HEROES) BROTHERS DOWN THE STORY OF THE USS ARIZONA AT PEARL HARBOR

2025 Note: I went to visit the Arizona Memorial earlier this year during a rip to Hawaii to see my son and his family. A very sobering experience and highly recommended. We interview author Walter Borneman about his riveting book BROTHERS DOWN, which is the story of the heroes aboard the USS Arizona, which was dive-bombed and sunk by Japanese planes on December 7th, 1941. 63 of the Arizonas 1, 177 dead were brothers.

Author Walter Borneman gives us a preview here of a story that needs to be shared and remembered- that America must always maintain its vigil and must be ready at all times to defend herself.
