Birthday trivia

What do you wish someone whose birthday is Pearl Harbor Day?

Happy Birthday!

Do you know what other significant events happened on December 7th?

Well Noam Chomsky was born!

In better news, so was Johnny Bench.

And Delaware became the first state to ratify the Constitution on Dec 7, 1787.

(Did you guys know that?)

And here's my trivia question: Name the cook aboard the USS West Virginia who was commanded to the deck and took over one of the machine guns until he ran out of ammunition. He survived the attack on Pearl Harbor (though, unfortunately not WWII) and won the Navy Cross for his heroics.

UPDATE: In another case it was the last day of freedom for another blogger's parents. Happy Birthday tomorrow. Elie's Expositions' own take.

Blogdigger tags: Happy Birthday, Pearl Harbor Day.
