DoubleTap Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Today in World War II History 12-6... December 6th, 1941 - Pacific U.S. President Roosevelt sent a telegram to Japanese Emporor Hirohito that requested intervention "to prevent further death and destruction in the world." Intelligence reports had convinced Roosevelt that the Japanese fleet was headed for Thailand. Little Known Fact: An error in translation caused the telegram to read "we request further death and destruction in the world." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
