Follow on Google News | New Legal Tender Coin Remembers the 75th Anniversary of the "Day That Will Live In Infamy"On that day of heart-breaking tragedy and towering heroism, the U.S. Naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii was suddenly attacked by the Empire of Japan. It was truly a date, as President Franklin Roosevelt said, "that will live in infamy." It propelled our nation's entry into World War II, and galvanized our "Greatest Generation" to "Remember Pearl Harbor" and defend our freedom. "As we look back, we can see that Pearl Harbor is about more than a surprise attack. It also tells a story of American spirit and resilience in the face of tragedy," said Bradford Exchange Mint Director Rob Pomeroy. "Much like the events of 9/11/2001, both military personnel and civilians alike risked their lives to save others. And as the "Greatest Generation" marches on, a legal tender coin is a great way to involve the next generations in remembering this milestone anniversary."
