What if FDR said we'd stay in it for a while, then get out no matter what happened "over there"?

My dad (pictures are posted on in my album here at Mohicanland)was already an 17 year old private in the Army the day of the Pearl Harbor attack. He was detailed to guard prisoners in a military hospital ward outside of New Orleans, LA next to an Army airfield alongside Lake Pontchartrain. He told me that he was sitting at the nurses station talking with the night shift nurses (Women's Army Corp.) listening to a radio. One of the nurses had expressed an interest in the 45 automatic pistol he was carrying and he was showing her (probably trying to impress and make a little time with her also!) how it worked and how to use it. He said that when the announcer broke in on the music and made the announcement you cold have heard a pin drop, her face went pale, tears welled up and with a breaking voice said, I guess I had better really learn how to use this now! Folks, that is how a once great nation went to war, it was all the way or nothing, no concessions or early settlement, it was to pulverize the enemy into an unconditional surrender! So I know exactly where my dad was and what he was doing 68 years ago today, he was already in the service of his country and with a weapon in his hands!
