In late 1995 amidst heated debate over the blame placed on Rear Adm. Husband E. Kimmel and Maj. Gen. Walter C. Short for the devastation of the attack on Pearl Harbor and their subsequent demotions, the Department of Defense ordered its own investigation into the matter. The first to be conducted outside the Army and Navy establishment and the only official inquiry into restoring Kimmel and Short to the ranks they held prior to the attack, the investigation took a fresh look at the entire controversy. Called the Dorn Report after Edwin Dorn, the then-undersecretary of defense who led the investigation, the report found Kimmel and Short guilty of errors of judgement but not solely responsible for the catastrophe and did not recommend restoring their ranks.
This book presents the complete report issued by the investigators; added commentary by Fred Borch and Daniel Martinez will help readers understand what it all means. Borch was the Army's representative on the team that conducted the investigation and one of three writers of the report. His firsthand knowledge contributes significantly to the analysis presented here. Martinez, a park historian at the USS Arizona Memorial and acknowledged expert on the attack, lends an important historical perspective to this book. With its authoritative analysis and summary of events, this well-documented record of who knew what and when argues that Kimmel and Short may not have been able to defeat the Japanese, but they could have inflicted more damage had they been ready on that fateful December day in 1941.

While visiting Pearl Harbor in 2025 I made various purchases at the gift shop but didn't see this item there (it was on my 'to buy' list). While recently purchasing some items off the online site I decided to get it. A very cool item I'll add to the rest of my Pearl Harbor memorabilia.
I visited Pearl Harbor in 2025 and made a bunch of purchases at the gift shop but didn't see this item. While recently ordering some items off the online site I came across this and thought it was pretty cool. And it is! Good quality and great to look at.It's now the main bookmark for my reading material.
While visiting Pearl Harbor in April of 2025 I purchased some items including this bookmark at the gift shop. While recently ordering som other items online I decided to snatch up a couple more. A great and cool souvenir memorial item. You can never have too many bookmarks!
I visited Oahu in April 2025 and spent a lot of time at Pearl Harbor. I picked up a bunch of items including t-shirts at the gift shop but didn't see this one. I recently visited the online site and saw it and knew I had to have it. Made of the same durable quality as the other shirts I purchased and very cool looking. A great addition to my collection.
I ordered a flag to be flown at the USS Arizona for my son 50th birthday when i became the senior on 04-25-1976 and to remember the sailors who perish when the ship went down in the harbor god bless all that perish on that day.
A high-quality shirt that fits well. It features an embroideeed name and logo and the fabric looks like it will hold its shape and color for a long time.
