That is probably one of the most famous photos of Pearl Harbor and there were no Stukas. This is an obvious photo shop.
On the website page where the hell did they get that uniform, from a bellhop?
I think that FDR knew something was coming, but expected the blow to fall in the Philippines (which were hit 8 hours later). The attack at Pearl Harbor was a shock to everyone except Admiral James O. Richardson, who was removed as CINCPAC due to his concerns about moving the fleet to Pearl Harbor earlier that year. He is not recorded as telling everyone that he told them so, be he surely would have been justified.
Correct
Thanks.
C-Span2’s “In Depth” this month was dedicated to Pearl Harbor with three historians talking and answering viewers’ questions on the topic for three hours this afternoon - for those interested, it’ll be repeated tonight at Midnight EST on C-Span2 - in fact it’s scheduled to be repeated whether anyone’s interested or not.....
Yes, the Stuka’s flew off the German aircraft carrier Graf Zepplin when they attacked pearl harbor.
I recommend reading Peter Tsouras’ “Rising Sun Victorious” about the Japanese success in the Pacific theater.
