Today Larry Bird Turns 48. Today also marks the 63rd anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The bombing brought the US completely and unequivocally into World War II.

Here is what then President Franklin D. Roosevelt had to say:

Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of American was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.

-President Franklin D. Roosevelt

Although the U.S. had been supporting the allies it was not officially involved in the war up until the 7th. The bombing of Pearl Harbor lead the U.S. to declare war on Japan, Germany and Italy all in the same week, this week, 63 years ago.
