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.

The shirt is great. My only complaint is it doesn't come in another color. I'm not a big fan of dark blue. It is a great way to honor our country and not forget the past.
got this Medallion in a set of items including the Diamond Head Certificate, Diamond Head Medallion and the Diamond Head Bench Marking pin. We did both during our last visit and loved the experience.
I’m playing catch up with just now getting the walking stick medallions of the places I’ve been in the last 3 years. I purchased this set with the Arizona and Diamond Head medallion along with the Diamond Head Cert and the Bench Mark pin for a good price and I’m really happy with all items.
a nice piece to add to our travels collection my wife and I simply put both of our names onto the cert with the date we climbed in the circle. Printed very nicely and I purchase a nice certificate frame for it.
I ordered this flag, your people canceled it because they did not have the one I ordered. Then 25 email and 25 phone calls later. These flags where to be flown on the
25th of Jan with a pick up order. After 25 or so phones calls i final got a young lady (Mgr of gift shop) who fixed all of this and went above and beyond. They where flown on date in question and handed to me and certificate where done while waiting. But the stress was so bad. As we where there for our 50th Anniversary and my daughter 43rd birthday and i had needed this done. I ordered early to assure this was being done.
1. If you don't have flags remove from website.
2. If you have a phone number on website, have someone answering it.
3 if you have an email on website make sure someone reply to each email.
Not that hard.
I thought that it was very nice and love adding it to my collection of his? I have a nice complete set of DVD"s along with some nice Colorized Kennedy Half Dollars and he was one of my favorites while I grew up as well.
