In this Dec. 6, 2019 photo, Richard Wright tells a story about firing a bazooka into a house in Italy while in the 10th Mountain Division during World War II at his home in Piedmont, S.D. Wright celebrated his 98th birthday on Dec. 10. He observed the 78th Pearl Harbor Day on Dec. 7. Those two dates are related in more than their proximity on the calendar. The attack on Pearl Harbor is what led Wright to join the armed forces. (Adam Fondren /Rapid City Journal via AP)
