当地时间12月7日,美国将在在两个地方同时举行纪念仪式,纪念63年前日本偷袭珍珠港时阵亡的2000余名美军官兵。 据美联社12月6日报道,一个纪念仪式是在修建于沉没战舰之上的亚利桑那纪念馆举行;另外一个纪念仪式是在一座国立公园内举行。当天早上7:55分全场静默——以铭记被日本偷袭的那个难忘时刻。 1941年12月7日,日本偷袭珍珠港,并对瓦胡岛上其他军事基地进行袭击,共持续两个小时,造成美军21只舰船重创,320架飞机被毁或受损,并造成美军2390人牺牲、1178人受伤。(程庆华) With U.S. troops fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, Americans marked the anniversary Tuesday of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor with a salute to the nation's resilience 63 years ago. A moment of silence at 7:55 a.m. marked the exact time when the Japanese bombs began to fall, killing more than 2,000 Americans. Hawaii Air National Guard jets flew overhead in the missing-man formation. A new permanent exhibit on the Oklahoma at the USS Arizona Memorial opened to the public Tuesday. Survivors of the USS Oklahoma are pressing for a permanent memorial. In all, about 2,390 people were killed in the surprise attack. |
