S.P. 8 
_____ 
IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 
TWO THOUSAND AND SIXTEEN 
_____ 
JOINT RESOLUTION RECOGNIZING THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF 
THE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR 
WHEREAS, on December 7, 1941, without warning and minutes before 8 a.m., 
aircraft of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Air Force attacked United States 
military installations at Pearl Harbor and elsewhere on the island of Oahu, Hawaii; 
and 
WHEREAS, the bulk of the attack at Pearl Harbor lasted for approximately 5 
hours, during which 2,403 members of the United States Armed Forces were killed 
or mortally wounded, 1,247 members of the Armed Forces were wounded and 57 
civilians lost their lives; and 
WHEREAS, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt declared the day of the attack 
on Pearl Harbor "a date which will live in infamy," and the people of the United 
States became united in remembrance of their fallen countrymen and committed to 
defending the United States against all aggressors; and 
WHEREAS, the following day, on December 8, 1941, Congress declared war 
against Japan and 3 days later against Germany, thus beginning the United States's 
involvement in a global conflict that would define a generation; and 
WHEREAS, after nearly 4 years of warfare, on September 2, 1945, after victory 
on the European front, World War II ended with the Japanese surrendering aboard 
the USS Missouri; and 
WHEREAS, on August 23, 1994, Congress enacted Public Law 103-308, which 
designated December 7th of each year as National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day 
and requests the President to issue each year a proclamation calling on the people 
of the United States to observe National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day with 
appropriate ceremonies and activities; now, therefore, be it 
RESOLVED: That We, the Members of the One Hundred and Twenty-eighth 
Legislature now assembled in the First Regular Session, on behalf of the people we 
represent, take this opportunity to recognize the 75th anniversary of the attack on 
Pearl Harbor and the lasting significance of National Pearl Harbor Remembrance 
Day and to honor both those who survived the attack and all those who paid the 
ultimate sacrifice and gave their lives in defense of freedom and liberty during 
World War II.
