Book Description
Excerpt from Investigation of the Pearl Harbor Attack: Report of the Joint Committee on the Investigation of the Pearl Harbor Attack, Congress of the United States, Pursuant to S. Con; Res; 27, 79th Congress At a. M. (hawaiian time) over 300 Japanese planes launched from 6 aircraft carriers attacked the island of Oahu and the American Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor in the Territory of Hawaii Within a period of less than 2 hours our military and naval forces suffered a total of 3 casualties In personnel and the loss of or severe damage to: 188 planes of all types, 8 battleships, 3 light cruisers and 4 misesi laneous vessels. The attack was well planned and skillfully executed. The Japanese raiders withdrew from the attack and were recovered by the carriers Without the latter being detected, having suffered losses of less than 100 in personnel, 29 planes, and 5 midget submarines which had been dispatched from mother craft that coordinated their attack with that of the planes. One hour after Japanese air and naval forces had struck the Territory of Hawaii the emissaries of Japan delivered to the Secretary of State a reply to a recent American note, a reply containing no suggestion of attack by Japan upon the United States. W ith the benefit of informa tion now available it is known that the Japanese military had planned for many weeks the unprovoked and ambitious act of December 7. The Pyrrhic victory of having executed the attack with surprise, cunning, and deceit belongs to the war lords of Japan whose dreams of con quest were buried In the ashes of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. History will properly place responsibility for Pearl Harbor upon the military clique dominating the people of Japan at the time. Indeed, this responsibility Premier Tojo himself has already assumed. We come today, over 4 years after the event, not to detract from this responsibility but to record for posterity the facts of the disaster In another sense we seek to find lessons to avoid pitfalls In the future, to evolve constructive suggestions for the protection of our national security, and to determine whether there were failures in our own military and naval establishments which in any measure may have contributed to the extent and intensity of the disaster.
