Immediately on clearing the channel, I diverted the battleships, three in number, cruisers and destroyers, under Admirals Draemel and Kidd, and told them to carry out exercises in a certain area. Admiral, do you feel that the dispatching of Marine planes to Wake was a consequence of this dispatch that you have had before you or had that been decided before the dispatch arrived? A
No other work of historical fiction has at the same time taken itself so seriously and managed to show such irreverence both for its subject and for the very craft of film-making. The film was very accurate with the history of the war itself and even goes into how we fought back after that day...there are just a few scenes that are hard to watch and bring tears to the eye
ROGER LONG(Engineer, United States Navy): And we're going to test it on the surface, with this open, as if they set off the scuttling charge floating, and then we're going to explode under water with a plastic cap to simulate the fact that the hatch only has a very small resistance to blowing open. But unlike the other four, did midget sub number 5 fire its torpedoes into a battleship? HARUO TOHMATSU: The navy high command actually believed that it heavily damaged or sunk one American battleship at Pearl Harbor
Day of Infamy Speech
But always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us.No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us.Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger.With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph -- so help us God.I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December 7th, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese empire
"A Date Which Will Live in Infamy": FDR Asks for a Declaration of War

Glenn Reynolds: What if Pearl Harbor happened and nobody noticed?
Paper documents have their problems, but at least they can't be hacked and stolen en masse.For the rest of us, the lesson is that we should probably think twice before entrusting the federal government with our own information. Because if the feds can't protect their own sensitive data, on behalf of people who work for the federal government, how good a job are they likely to do on behalf of the rest of us mere citizens?Glenn Harlan Reynolds, a University of Tennessee law professor, is the author of The New School: How the Information Age Will Save American Education from Itself.In addition to its own editorials, USA TODAY publishes diverse opinions from outside writers, including our Board of Contributors
The Americans located the Japanese fleet in the early morning and commenced a costly air strike that only 6 of the attacking 41 torpedo bombers survived.

Marshall's telegram to Short arrived in Honolulu but was not identified as a priority message and was given to RCA Messenger Tadao Fuchikami at 0733 hours to deliver in the normal course of his morning rounds. And within a few months, operatives at the Japanese embassy had a complete record of all the vessels stationed at Pearl Harbor, their schedules, which were under repair or being overhauled, which had left for duty at sea and the disposition of combat aircraft

THE PEARL HARBOR DECEPTION
In Your Faceyear before 9-11, wherein they calculated they would need a Pearl Harbor Type of Event to act as a catalyst to generate American Public support for another fraud ... Marshall go horseback riding while Pearl Har bor burned? Or, was he too busy preventing the commander of that Hawaiian military installation from being warned of the coming attack? It would be an interesting exercise to endeavor to reconstruct Gen
Sadly, we have been conditioned to believe that the job of the government is to keep us safe, but in reality the job of the government is to protect our liberties. This time we are in is very exciting due to the fact that more people know the truth today than ever before, and this tyrannical reign can finally come to an end
When I looked back to see what had happened, the radioman said: 'The fuselage is holed and the rudder wire damaged.' We were fortunate that the plane was still under control, for it was imperative to fly a steady course as we approached the target.
