Infos

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the Hawaiian Air Force on December 7, 1941, had succeeded beyond all expectations. The Americans had received a salutary but exceedingly unpalatable dose of enforced humility.#2 Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the American public was extremely frustrated with the apparent lack of action from the U. S. military. The press began to realize that further serious reverses were almost certainly in store for the British and American Far Eastern forces.#3 The presence on Oahu of Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox and Associate Justice Owen J. Roberts did little to boost morale. The threat of another Japanese attack was always present.#4 The American people wanted a show of fight, and they needed it badly. The top brass in Washington were also extremely displeased with the decision to recall the Wake fleet.
