It's been posted here before by me and others about the flashback scene and the 30,000 enlistments. However, I was watching an AHC Pearl Harbor documentary which prompts me to post again.
In New York, it was about 2:30 PM on December 7 when the Japanese attacked Pearl (and Vito's birthday). So, how is it that anyone enlisted "this morning" as Tessio states in the flashback scene in response to the attack? Also, I attributed Michael's enlistment in the Marines as a response to the Pearl Harbor attack, an enlistment which took place before the attack.
Like so many other things, I guess we'll know the answers when we get to Heaven. That being the case, some of us will never know the answers.
