MIDLAND -- People across America are taking time to remember the loved ones they lost years ago.
    Tuesday was the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, and it's one of the many examples of how our fighting men and women gave the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country.
    "It's one of those things that it's become an iconic moment in our culture," C.A.F. Museum Director Jeff Wood told Big 2. "You say 'Pearl Harbor,' you say the assassination of Kennedy, and those things are brought up and it's one of those things I don't think we'll ever forget as a country and as a nation."
    The C.A.F. has a lot planned for Saturday, including a Remembrance of War seminar at 2:00 PM. Fifi, the B-29 Superfortress that was built during WWII, will also be there for tours.
