Pearl Harbour Attack 75th Anniversary

Postby kham » Wed Dec 07, 2016 5:03 am

Several ceremonies through the day at Pearl, one of the largest at USS Arizona Memorial
@USS Arizona will be live tweeting the attack timeline; Time there is EST -5, so 0600, now, is 0100 Hawaii

This shot was from them last week, never seen it before; the Clock from the Ship's Chaplains Office. Stopped at the time of the magazine explosion

75 years......damn.
Love the old blueprints. Those guys put me to shame lol.......blows your mind that someone did that by hand on a board with a bunch of templates and pencils.

Remember Dory Miller, the kitchen porter who did something that nobody else thought of....firing back!
