Description

Pearl Harbour, Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands. 1941-12-07. A Japanese picture, taken half an hour after the initial Japanese air attack, showing bombed US ships in "Battleship Row". The concentration of ships, in line, made the Japanese attack more potent than it would have been if the ships had been dispersed.
