In the early hours of December 7, 1941, the Japanese launched their first attack on Pearl Harbor. Their main targets were the aircraft carriers and the destroyers in port. The Utah was moored in an area reserved for the aircraft carriers. Utah was covered in 6 by 12 inch timbers and metal sheds to protect it from target practice. The location of the Utah coupled with the timbers on deck, made it appear as an aircraft carrier. The japanese pilots attacked the Utah with a vengeance. Utah was the first ship to be hit and sunk.
The USS Utah remains sunk in Pearl Harbor today. Until very recently, access to the Memorial site has been allowed only with special permission. Most visitors to Pearl Harbor are not aware of the Utah Memorial or even that she remains in the harbor with 50 men still on duty.
This book is a Memorial to all the men that were serving on the USS Utah on that fateful morning. Who were these brave men? What did they experience during those last minutes?
A great deal has been written about the Pearl Harbor attack, the loss of ships and conspiracy theories. Very little has been written about the men that experienced these events first hand. This is their story.
Soft cover. 250 pages. Book measures approximately 8 inches by 10 inches.
Found some information i was looking for, but not all i wanted. Some crew members from USS Raleigh CL-7 tied up at F-12 near Utah were detailed to aid in rescues of crew-members of capsized Utah. My mother had said her brother Lansing Sharp, a Fireman Water Tender was among those who worked on Utah attempting recovery of those lost until December 25. However is name was not listed in the names of Raleigh crew on page 29 which only speaks of day 1, December 7th. According to family stories the work continued for days after.
This book is a treasure trove of real life information about a little recognized part of the attack and should be read by those interested in real stories about December 7th.

I am completely satisfied with the quality and graphic design on some coffee mugs I recently purchased. When I have my morning coffee the pictures of Pearl Harbor remind me of the great price that was paid for liberties that most people take for granted. Being a veteran and coming from a family with many veterans makes me feel even more honored to live in the U.S. Thank you for keeping the memories of our warriors alive.
I was so excited to gift this ornament to my son this year. Shipping took too long and it arrived with the plastic coating crinkled and there was a hole in the ornament.
I’m collecting shot glasses from the 50 states. I was in Hawaii several years ago and wasn’t collecting them at the time. So I had to order it online and they did not disappoint.
We were planning a trip to Hawaii and came across the Pacific Historic Parks website. I noticed that they offer a flag that will be flown on any day of the year. My Son-In-Law lost his Mother & Aunt in a accident on December 7, 2017. I thought this would be an awesome gift in honor of them. I wrote a letter of the circumstances to let them know why this was such a wonderful opportunity to honor a loved one. We gave the Flag to him on Christmas and it was very emotional. It came with a certificate that stated when it was flown and in honor of his Mom and Aunt's names.
I purchased a flag as a gift for my son who is very patriotic. The Flag was flown over the Arizona on December 7, 2025 and arrived in time for Christmas. Communication with the folks at Pacific Parks was exceptional. I had no doubt that the Flag would arrive in time. Thanks for great customer service.
