"Dogs of War" Savagely Released on December 7th, 1941 :-(

December 7th, '1941 - DAY OF INFAMY'
Imperial Japanese Navy committed a sneak unprovoked attack early Sunday morning on Oahu, Hawaii USA Naval base. This happened while negotiators were in Washington and while most servicemen were sleeping or at church services, these actions were considered taboo or dishonorable by ancient Japanese worrier code called Bushido. The ultimate goal of Admiral Yokamoto was to rule the entire Pacific of any white sovereignty, but this devastating attack that murdered some 3,000 people including military civilians, MIAs had the opposite affect as in the Admiral's Harvard trained mind "I' m afraid we might have woken a sleeping giant." causing USA to finally close the ambitious Pacific war with the horrific atomic bombing of their major industrial cities.
Nota Bene:
We are still uncovering MIAs :-(
To all washed under the waves.......R.I.P.

He never talked about it, but my mother told me he saved men bringing them to shore, and when he collapsed on the beach, he was thought to be dead.
He wasn't a big man, but he was tough.
I read something yrs. ago, before I ever got a computer and I haven't been able to find anything else about it, but in an article - think it was in USAToday - a survey was done of Japanese school children and they were asked if they thought Japan would ever be in another war like WWII and a large majority answered "Yes". When asked with who, over 70% said "The United States". Their history books are more than a little slanted towards their P.O.V....just as ours are, I suppose.
The Japanese meant to deliver the declaration of war before the attack actually started, but thanks to a slow typist at their embassy, it was given to the U.S. govt. after the attack had taken place. I guess the distinction is a legal one, but even if they HAD given it beforehand, they were timing it to take place while the planes were in the air and on the way. A legal difference, sure, but certainly not ethical.
10/4 CARBOB
R.I.P,
It wasn't like we didn't have warnings and signs; the radar that was ignored, all the military radio traffic from Japan that suddenly ceased the day before, not to mention the blustering of the Japanese for us cutting off our fuel exports to them.
As it was, they destroyed a few nearly obsolete battleships and thankfully the carriers weren't in port. They caused a lot of damage, sure, but if they had hit the tank farm full of fuel, Pearl Harbor would have been done as a port for many, many months.
Many people think the film of Pearl Harbor being attacked was real and part of the footage WAS taken during the attack, but not a lot. Nearly all of it was from a recreation done by some now-famous director. The actual "real" footage was nearly lost and what remains is poor quality.
