A social media account for U.S. whom President Donald Trump tapped for the role despite him having zero military experience, posted the wrong date of the attack on Pearl Harbor twice late last week.
The two posts, which have since been deleted, went up Friday after Phelan ― a wealthy investor, prominent art collector and Trump campaign donor ― visited the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and USS Arizona Memorial in Hawaii, saying he was “there to honor the thousands of service members and civilians who died at Pearl Harbor on June 7, 1941.” In another post, the account referred to it as “the fateful day of June 7, 1941.”
The Japanese military’s attack on Pearl Harbor, which President Franklin Roosevelt famously referred to as “a day that will live in infamy,” happened on Dec. 7, 1941. As the impetus for the United States’ entrance into World War II, it’s remembered as a day that changed the course of world history.
