I was living in Hawaii when they were filming the movie Tora Tora Tora. Knowing that it was just a movie and no real danger for anyone (except the several pilots that died during the filming) it was just weird seeing explosions in Pearl Harbor. I can't imagine the real terror of knowing those were real, and the people causing them wanted to inflict death and destruction on us. I guess it was no different for the civilians and service men in WW2 with bombs falling all around.

I remember back a few decades when a new neighbor was a Vietnamese immigrant. They test the tornado sirens around here at noon on Saturdays unless it is stormy. Anyway, the sirens went off and he (the new neighbor) and he almost freaked out. He could not believe we were totally calm. He had lived through air raids and it was hard for him to know at a gut level, no one is bombing us.
