On December 7, 1941, Japan waged a surprise attack on the United States Naval Base at Pearl Harbor. It was a major victory for the Japanese Navy, which in less than two hours destroyed 188 American planes, damaged another 159, and sunk or seriously damaged 18 U.S. warships. The battleships Arizona and Oklahoma were sunk. The battleships California, West Virginia, and Tennessee were badly damaged and would not rejoin the United States fleet for months. Over 2,400 American military personnel were killed and 1,178 were wounded. The Japanese lost 29 planes and pilots and five midget submarines and one large sub with their crews.
Here are 24 personal accounts of servicemen who survived the attack on Pearl Harbor. These accounts cover in detail the location of each of the men and his experience during and after the attack. Also included is general information about Pearl Harbor.
About the author: Harry Spiller served two tours in Vietnam with the Marine Corps. He is an associate professor of criminal justice and the author of Prisoners of Nazis (1998) and American POWs in Korea: Sixteen Personal Accounts (1998). He lives in Marion, Illinois.
This book is wonderful! Full of so much information. Amazing stories! I can't imagine having lived through this. Every time we visit Oahu we make sure to visit Pearl Harbor. In October 2024 the park ranger told the story of the bugler and the fighter pilot before we went out to get on the boat to the memorial. Always save room in your heart for grace! Thank you for making these books available when we get back home and wish we were still in Hawaii!

When my wife and I visited Hawaii in August 2014 I bought one of these shirts while I was over there but have only worn it on rare occasions because I thought I would not be able to get the same T-shirt again. Having gone online and found they are still available I bought another one and now wear my original one every week. They fit perfectly, are made of great quality material, good price and the graphics look stunning and I have since bought a cap to match.
Wearing it now as I write this. Purchased one in January this year when I visited Pearl Harbor and subsequently left it behind at a restaurant and never found it.Be more careful now
I purchased this same mug when my wife & I visited Pearl Harbor in May of this year, and I was so impressed with the quality and graphics that I bought another one for a friend.
It's a great book. I had the book years ago. Everyone should get the book who is interested about the USS Enterprise CV 6 And her Air group beginning of World War Two.
I bought this book for my staff to celebrate Nurses Day! What an honor to share this book with them, a first-hand account of the sacrifices and challenges that helped mold our profession. As active-duty uniformed service nurses, we must always remember that although these individuals may not have fought the war with a weapon, they fought with their hearts and souls to ensure that the soldiers and all involved were cared for and loved.
