Read the following statement from a lecture by a history teacher: "When I went to Hawaii last year, I visited the Pearl Harbor Memorial. I was struck by the solemness of the displays and pictorials. Four battleships and two destroyers were sunk, many more were badly damaged, and there were more than 2000 casualties. It really made me consider the horror of war and how it must have felt to be there on December 7, 1941, when it was all happening." Reformulate this statement into an appropriate form which could be written in your notes.
