81 years ago today, Portsmouth, NH residents heard a news flash on the radio that the Japanese were attacking our Naval base at Pearl Harbor. That marked the U.S. entrance into World War II.
The story below is reposted again with permission from a good friend of mine, and fellow Realtor, Saul Klein, whose father was actually at Pearl Harbor during the attack.
