There would be a rifle behind each blade of grass." <br />This keeps coming up. It has been shown to be BOGUS! Another urban legend. <br /><br />"I fear all we have done is awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve." [upon learning of the success of the Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor]<br /><br />This one came from the movie Tora! Tora! Tora!. Not a real quote. Although it is believed that summed up his feelings, their is no substantiated record of him saying that.<br /><br />JPDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03117684285970280362noreply@blogger.com
