Only 12 Pearl Harbor survivors remain: On the 84th anniversary, none can attend (cnn.com)

Let us always remember that Americans are the only nation that threw two nuclear bombs on another country and killed countless civilists.

Pearl Harbor, along with France 1940 and the Nukes were paradigm-shifting events that occurred in WW II. Events that overthrew decades-long assumptions as to how war was to be fought. Not sure the near-simultaneous invasions of Normandy and Saipan was a shift as much as "damn, that's a hell of lot of economic power being demonstrated". Subs and bombing were used in WW I, so that was already common knowledge in the 20's and 30's (Douhet, "bomber always gets through"). What, if anything, am I missing?
