This Day…
December 7, 1295: Joan's first husband, Gilbert de Clare died on December 7, 1295.[18]
The couple were married on April 30, 1290 at Westminster Abbey, and had four children together.[17][1] They were:
1.Gilbert de Clare, 7th Earl of Hertford
2.Eleanor de Clare
3.Margaret de Clare
4.Elizabeth de Clare [2]
5. December 7, 1383
6. It must have been shortly after that he was invited to become the city physician in Strassburg, and on December 7, 1383, the position was secure. The magistrate of the bishop city guaranteed Gutleben employment lasting for six years at a salary as high as 300 fl., besides expressly allowing him to lend money at interest.[3]

10.Dear Jeffery,
11.>
12.> I read with interest your exchange with Alice Gutleben, which was
13.> reported your blog's recent entries. I did not know why Alice
14.> suspected a connection - after all, the names involved would seem to
15.> be rather common. Out of curiosity, I did a search on Google Books,

20.> Footnote 1, page 8, reads:
21.>
22.> "Dieser Arzt Gottlieb ist vermutlich identisch mit dem Arzt Gutleben,
23.> der 1383 in Strassburg durch den dortigen Magistrat angestellt wurde;

25.>
26.> "This Doctor Gottlieb is probably identical with the Doctor Gutleben
27.> who was hired in Strasburg in 1383 by the local magistrate..."
28.>
29.> In other words, the names Gutleben/Gottlieb do appear to have been

The Lone Eagle or Lucky Lindy as he was called was an isolationist and part of the America First Committee. He was impressed with the Nazis. He saw fascism as the wave of the future and believed that “the wave was rolling towards America. He saw World War II being a continuation of centuries old European tribal feuds that had nothing to do with theUnited States. He stood with those who believed that FDR’s New Deal was “a Jewish concoction”and that a foreign policy supportin European democracies against the Nazis was the product of “Jewish interventionists.” In fact, Lindberg was scheduled to give a speech about why Anerica should stay out of the war on the afternoon of December 7, 1941.

December 7, 1941: The Japanese launch a preemptive strike against the U.S. naval fleet at Pearl Harbor.[20] The United States battleships, Arizona, California, Oklahoma, and Utah, are sunk during the surprise attack.[21]
December 7, 1941: VIVID MEMORIES: Pearl Harbor ‘changed a bunch of young boys into men within hours’
For former Navy cook Howard L. Snell, field bread — a sort of flatbread made with a little water — forever will be associated with the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Snell, an 18-year-old apprentice seaman at the time, was at the mess hall finishing breakfast on the morning of Dec. 7, 1941.
The sound of bombs sent him to the window, where he saw fire, smoke and explosions.
“The Oklahoma had already rolled over and started to capsize. I couldn’t fathom what I saw. Then everything seemed to blow up — that was when the Arizona’s magazines blew,” he recalled.
Snell was sent first to the armory, where he was assigned a Springfield rifle.
“I had a .45 on me and I looked like a bandido,” he said. “When the (Japanese) planes came over again, I started shooting. I’d like to say I hit one, but I know I didn’t.”
From there, Snell returned to the armory and was sent to the kitchen to bake field bread — which he did for the next three days.
Snell, who was assigned to the Enterprise, stayed on the carrier until 1943. He then was assigned to the destroyer Morrison, which was sunk by kamikaze planes off Okinawa.
In all, he was involved in 17 major battles in the Pacific.
When he returned to the United States after the war, Snell became a chief sonar technician (submarine) and ended up in naval intelligence. He spent 21 years in the Navy, then 13 years as a civil servant.
Before Pearl Harbor, many sailors seriously underestimated the fighting capabilities of the Japanese. “It changed a bunch of young boys into men within hours,” he said.
“It just changed our whole outlook on life. We couldn’t believe the Japanese would ever attack us. We didn’t think they were good fighters.”
Snell said he is compelled to contribute to his country and his nation — as a way of honoring his many dead shipmates.
“I looked at what our country stood for and I tried to see what I could do to contribute to it,” he said.
“I made a commitment to my shipmates, ‘Doggone it, I’m alive for a reason, and I need to do something worthwhile.’ ” Today, he is Texas state chairman of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association and president of the San Jacinto (Houston) chapter.
He thinks the public has forgotten that in wartime, people must die for their country.
“People have gotten so spoiled. They thought it was so easy in the Gulf War. This time (the war on terrorism), we’re going to have casualties and we have to expect it. People are going to die for our country.”
— Vivienne Heines[22]
December 7, 1941: Born in Minnesota, Howard Snell was the youngest of three kids and never knew his father. The family moved to Iowa when he was 13. He joined the Navy in 1941 and was assigned to the USS Enterprise at Pearl Harbor.
On Dec. 7, the aircraft carrier was at sea, but Snell was attending cooking school on the island. He was at breakfast when he heard the noise of the Japanese attack.
Snell remembers running to the fleet landing to see what was happening to see what was happening.
"I couldn't figure out what I was looking at," he said. "It was the Oklahoma. She'd already flipped over."
He lost a lot of friends that day.[23]

The 70th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor
December 7, 2011 marks the 70th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Altogether, 2,390 Americans lost their lives in the attack. Twelve ships sank or were beached, and nine were damaged. The U.S. lost 164 aircraft. The attack broke the backbone of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and forced America out of a policy of isolationism. President Franklin D. Roosevelt announced that it was “a date which will live in infamy” and Congress declared war on Japan the morning after. It was the first attack on American territory since 1812.

The Soviets gain bridegeheads over the River Chir and threaten German aire bases in the Soviet Union.[24]
Convoy 64, December 7, 1943
This convoy is numbered 64 because of a German mix-up in the files with the convoy of December 17, which is numbered 63. It (Convoy 64) carried 575 males and 422 females. The age composition of the youth was similar to Convoy 62, with 161 people under 18, of whom 106 were children under 12.
Also deported with this convoy was Raymond-Raoul Lambert, 49, President of the IGIF, his wife Simone, 39, and their four children. Their deportation at this time was due to the protests of Mr. Lambert to the Vichy Government (document XXVII-36, of August 15, 1943. [25]
Raymond-Raoul Lamberts Diary has been among the most important untranslated records of the experience of French Jews in the Holocaust. Lambert, a leader of the Union of French Jews (UGIF), was, in the words of the historian Michael Marrus, “arguably the most important Jewish official in contact with the Vichy government and the Germans.” Lambert’s Diary survived the war and was published in France in 1985. It reveals Lambert’s efforts to save the Jews in France, particularly the children.[26] The book is titled “Diary of a Witness, 1940-1943”, Ivan R. Dee, Publisher. ISBN: 1-56663-740-6/978-1-56663-740-4.
On November 30, Rothke had telexed to Eichmann that he was scheduling a convoy of 1,000 Jews for December 7 (XLIX-59). On December 3, Gunther, Eichmann’s assistant, telexed Berlin’s consent for this convoy (XLIX-33). On December 4, Hagen and Oberg contacted Himmler to advise him of the departure of the convoy (SLIX-33). The routine telex was signed by Rothke; the convoy left December 7 at 12:10 AM with 1,000 Jews from Paris/Bobigny, under the supervision of Lieutenant Wannenmacher (XLIX-32a).
There were at least four escapes en route to Auschwitz, among them that of Cesar Chamy, who was later recaptured and escaped a second time on August 17, 1944.
When they arrived in Auschwitz, 267 men were selected and received numbers 167442 through 167708. Seventy two women received numbers 70184 through 70255. The rest, 657, were gassed upon arrival.
On board Convoy 64 on December 7, 1943 was Fanny Gotlib born December 6, 1904 from St. Denis.[27]
In 1945 there were 50 survivors, two of them women.[28]

PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (AP) — Aging Pearl Harbor survivors on Tuesday heard reassurances their sacrifice would be remembered and passed on to future generations as they gathered to mark the 69th anniversary of the attack.
"Long after the last veteran of the war in the Pacific is gone, we will still be here telling their story and honoring their dedication and sacrifice," National Park Service Director Jonathan Jarvis told about 120 survivors who traveled to Hawaii from around the country for the event.
Merl Resler, 88, of Newcastle, Calif., was among those who returned. He remembered firing shots at Japanese planes from the USS Maryland and standing in the blood of a shipmate hit by shrapnel during the attack.
"My teeth was chattering like I was freezing to death, and it was 84 degrees temperature. It was awful frightful," said Resler.
On Tuesday, fighter jets from the Montana Air National Guard flew above Pearl Harbor in missing man formation to honor those killed in the attack, which sunk the USS Arizona and with it, nearly 1,000 sailors and Marines. In all, about 2,400 service members died.
Sailors lined the deck of the USS Chafee and saluted as the guided missile destroyer passed between the sunken hull of the USS Arizona and the grassy landing where the remembrance ceremony was held.
After the ceremony, the survivors, some in wheelchairs, passed through a "Walk of Honor" lined by saluting sailors, Marines, airmen and soldiers to enter a new $56 million visitor center that was dedicated at the ceremony.
"This facility is the fulfillment of a promise that we will honor the past," Jarvis said.
The Park Service built the new center because the old one, which was built on reclaimed land in 1980, was sinking into the ground. The old facility was also overwhelmed by its popularity: it received about 1.6 million visitors each year, about twice as many as it was designed for.
People often had to squeeze by one another to view the photos and maps in its small exhibit hall. In comparison, the new center has two spacious exhibition halls with room for more people, as well as large maps and artifacts such as anti-aircraft guns.
There was a minor disruption on the center's first day when the discovery of an unidentified bag inside one of the galleries prompted the Park Service to briefly evacuate the two exhibit halls and a courtyard. But the rest of the visitors center remained open, and everyone was allowed back in the galleries after the object was determined to be a medical bag carrying oxygen.
U.S. Pacific Fleet commander Adm. Patrick Walsh said the new center, which has twice the exhibition space as the old one, would tell the story of those who fought and won the peace.
"This museum gives a view into their lives, a window into the enormity of their task, an appreciation of the heaviness of their burden, the strength of their resolve," Walsh said.
Assistant Secretary of the Interior Thomas Stickland said the events of Dec. 7, 1941, were so traumatic and marked by heroism that they had become ingrained in the nation's consciousness.
"That day is now fundamental to who we are as a people. Its stories must be preserved. They must be honored and they must be shared," Strickland said.
USS Pennsylvania sailor DeWayne Chartier was on his way to church that day but never made it: "I got interrupted someplace along the line," the 93-year-old recounted.
He returned to Pearl Harbor from Walnut Creek, Calif., to mark the anniversary and see the dedication of the new center.
"It is my duty. It is not just a visit," Chartier said. "I felt I should be part of it."[33]
December 7, 2010: Pearl Harbor Survivors Commend FRA's Efforts to Preserve USS Arizona Legacy
When the new USS Arizona Memorial Visitor Center is dedicated in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7th, it will represent decades of dedication by members of the Fleet Reserve Association (FRA). On the 69th anniversary of the Japanese attack on the U.S. and our nation’s entry into World War II, many FRA members will be on hand to honor their lost shipmates and fellow survivors, and witness the culmination of the Association’s efforts to preserve their memories.
Among those who will be on hand is Julius Finnern, a Pearl Harbor survivor who was serving aboard USS Monahan (DD-354) on that fateful day in 1941. He’s been an FRA member since 1956 and has also been a senior leader for the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association. Finnern, who is the last of five Pearl Harbor survivors living in Menomonee Falls, Wisc., is pleased that his shipmates’ service and sacrifice continue to be honored by the millions of visitors and donors to the USS Arizona Memorial and visitor center.
“It seems there’s little mention of World War II these days,” he says. “There are fewer and fewer WWII veterans around and even fewer Pearl Harbor survivors. Most are in their 90’s now.”
FRA played a significant role in the creation of the USS Arizona Memorial and associated visitor centers. In the late 1950s, Congress authorized the construction of the memorial to honor the Arizona crew entombed when the ship sank, and FRA immediately got involved by encouraging its members and all citizens to participate in the fundraising campaign. The Association offered scale model kits of the USS Arizona to every shipmate who donated to the project. The memorial was dedicated on Memorial Day 1962 and instantly became a national shrine, attracting millions of visitors to the site.
During the ensuing years, FRA maintained its commitment to honoring the Arizona and her crew. The Association mounted a nine-month campaign to build a $7,500 scale replica of the vessel, which was unveiled on December 7th, 1967, and displayed at the USS Arizona Memorial through 1980. (The model now resides at FRA’s National Headquarters in Alexandria, Va.)
Because of the memorial’s immense popularity, visitors faced long lines and delays as they waited for Navy transports to take them from the shore to the memorial, which is situated in the harbor. As the need for a shoreside visitor center grew, FRA again got involved. Members of FRA’s Pearl Harbor/Honolulu Branch 46 formed the Arizona Memorial Museum Foundation, which launched a grassroots fundraising campaign to construct a $5 million facility. The Foundation’s efforts netted nearly $1 million in donations from FRA branches, affiliated Ladies’ Auxiliary units and individual shipmates. After more than 10 years of concentrated efforts, the original USS Arizona Memorial Visitor Center was dedicated on December 7th, 1980.
Shipmate Bill Roberts of Bowling Green, Ky., was among the thousands who contributed to the effort. He was serving as a mail clerk aboard the USS Maryland (BB-46) in December 1941 and was “surprised and shocked” when he realized the Japanese were attacking his and other ships.
“I’m glad to be part of the efforts that built the memorial and the visitor centers,” said Roberts, who’s been a member of FRA since 1958 and is the only Pearl Harbor survivor still living in his county. “I knew someone on just about every ship that was lost at Pearl Harbor and it’s important that we remember and recognize them.”
FRA has also been instrumental in the more recent campaign to expand and renovate the visitor center. Unfortunately, what began nearly 10 years ago as an $8 million renovation project became a $56 million construction program when it was discovered that the foundation of the original structure was sinking. In the ongoing effort to preserve the artifacts and legacy of this important event in American history, FRA again contributed as a national entity and is the largest donor among contributing veterans’ groups. Additionally, many branches, units and individual shipmates have also added to the millions of dollars raised to construct the new facility. The new visitor center, which is part of the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument, will provide an expanded state-of-the-art museum, education and research center and improved amenities that will allow visitors to access digitized documents, photographs and oral histories.
Howard Snell will be among the many FRA members who will attend the center’s grand opening and dedication on December 7th, 2010. He was assigned to the USS Enterprise (CV-6) at Pearl Harbor back in 1941. The aircraft carrier was at sea when the Japanese attacked, but he was attending cooking school on the island and witnessed history first hand. The 87-year-old Navy retiree from Spartanburg, S.C., will solemnly recall the many friends he lost nearly 70 years ago.
Snell and Finnern will be joined by FRA National President Jim Scarbro, Past National Presidents George Kaye and Jerry Sweeney, and numerous members from Branch 46 during the five days of events associated with the opening, which will include the interment of USS Utah survivor David Smith at the USS Utah Memorial on Ford Island.
The memories of those lost at Pearl Harbor will also be remembered by other FRA members at ceremonies across the nation, including events at the University of Arizona in Tucson, a wreathlaying ceremony at the U.S. Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C., and a commemorative service at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md. But many FRA members will remember their lost shipmates in more private ways.
Shipmate Noel Stephens was cooking breakfast aboard USS Zane (DD-337) when the Pearl Harbor attack began. He recalls that “all hell broke out and we went to general quarters. My post was to man the machine gun over the galley.” The 95-year-old resident of Detroit, Mich., will remember the many friends he lost when the Arizona sank. “I trained with many of them while we were stationed together in Norfolk [Va.] in 1936,” Stephens recalls sadly.
FRA Shipmate Vic Miranda, who currently lives in San Diego, Calif., was a 20-year-old Sailor in the Pearl Harbor supply corps in 1941. He won’t ever forget the horrors he saw as he worked in the hospital’s burn unit in the wake of the attack.
“Guys came in covered in oil,” he recalls. “We had [victims] all over the floors, in the passageways, everywhere. There wasn’t much we could do for them except clean them up and give them morphine for the pain.”
At age 89. Miranda isn’t up to the trip to Hawaii, but he’ll be there in spirit. “The new center will be great,” he says. “It means a lot to me that FRA continues to be engaged in preserving the Pearl Harbor legacy.”[34]
