If you could meet anyone in history, who would it be and why?

I would like to meet the person who received the message warning that the Japanese planned to bomb Pearl Harbor or were enroute to Kole Kole Pass. As to why I would like to meet this person, I would ask what made them think that this was not plausible? Who made the decision to not pass this information on to higher authority? Why was this not given top priority? Why was this placed with unimportant messages?
Can we now admit how many and the locations of ALL Japanese interment camps we maintained during this time period? Did we compensate the Japanese Americans and Koreans as we have ALL others such as the Vietnamese, etc.? I know this has gone to something more than one question, but it involves equatable reparation to those involved in wars with the United States of America.

If I could meet anyone in history, I would choose to meet Harriet Tubman. The reason I would choose her is because, I would like to ask her a few questions about what gave her the strength to want to save so many people. I would like to know why she never gave up. I feel that for a black woman in her time, she needed an amazing amount of strength do what she did. I would like to tell her what she did for so many generations and how she has inspired so many people.

Jack LaLanne is whom I would like to meet. He was the first fitness guru on television many years past. I was an overweight sedentary child and when I saw him on TV, I began to work out with him and lost weight, became fit for life and excelled at High School sports obtaining a scholarship for wrestling. Later in the military it served me well. Earning the President Roosevelt Fitness medal, being honor graduate from the Army master fitness trainer course and competing at state, national and international levels over my career. Entering law enforcement at 52, SWAT team at 54 and becoming the sergeant of that team at 60 years of age. Hired by Bureau of Land Management as a wildland firefighter at 67 and now planning on competing in the World Fire and Police Games in 2025. I would just like to thank him and tell him what he did for an overweight, unconfident kid.

I would like to meet Ronald Reagan. I'd like to learn why he decided to run for president. Was it similar to the situation that President Trump found himself in?

Jesus Christ, the greatest influencer in history.

Gen George Patton. The world needs more of his ilk--no nonsense, here's your job, so go do it. He had clear goals, a plan to achieve them, and anything or anyone who got in the way got a terrific ass-kicking!

Golfers of yesteryear Old and Young Tom Morris, Harry Vardon, Francis Ouimet, Walter Hagen, and Bobby Jones ... what a group that would be !!!!! Me hacking away with my modern titanium, stainless steel and carbon fiber clubs and balls, and them with their hickory shafted clubs and their gutta percha or "featherie" balls ... I'd probably get whooped but I'd enjoy every minute of it!

FDR! I would have liked to have met him. He got the country out of a depression and won a 2 front war.

If I could meet anyone in history it would be Jesus Christ, because He is my Lord and Savior.

One of the most inspiring minority military heroes in American history is Doris "Dorie" Miller, an African American sailor in the United States Navy during World War II. Miller's bravery and selflessness during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, earned him the Navy Cross, making him the first African American to receive the award.

Miller's heroic actions during the attack on Pearl Harbor were nothing short of extraordinary. Despite being assigned to the ship's kitchen, Miller, with no formal training on a .50 caliber anti-aircraft machine gun, manned the weapon and shot down multiple Japanese planes, saving countless lives in the process. His selflessness and bravery were instrumental in stopping the attack and changing the course of the war.

It would be an incredible honor to meet Doris Miller and hear about his experiences firsthand. To be in the presence of someone who had such a profound impact on American history would be awe-inspiring. To hear about his courage and bravery in the face of danger, as well as his role in breaking down racial barriers within the military, would be a truly humbling experience.

Meeting Doris Miller would be an opportunity to express gratitude for his service and to learn from his example. Miller's courage, selflessness, and determination serve as a reminder to all of us that, despite the challenges we may face, we have the ability to rise above them and make a difference in the world.
