Admiral Kimmel and General Short were scapegoated for the losses at Pearl Harbor. Each knew a Jap attack was imminent & prepared defenses as best they could with the intel they had.
Their descendants are trying to clear their names to this day.
There were many other officers who were smeared as well. It really was a disgusting display of a Democrat politician (Roosevelt) throwing a whole group of good men under the bus for political expediency. Every career WWII veteran we ever knew who was a member of the military before we got into the war viewed it this way. And we knew quite a few.
