#Oakland, #Calif., Mar. 1942. A large sign reading "I am an #American" placed in the window of a store, at 401 - 403 Eighth and #Franklin streets, on December 8, the day after #PearlHarbor. The store was closed following orders to persons of #Japanese descent to evacuate from certain #WestCoast areas. The owner, a #UniversityofCalifornia graduate, will be housed with hundreds of evacuees in #WarRelocationAuthority centers for the duration of the war

Views from Maui. Also a link to help people find their missing people.
I've heard from people on the ground, many hundreds are deceased. Possibly over a thousand missing.
Maui needs a mobile morgue NOW.
Many dead bodies need proper storage.
Please boost.

Dear #Navy & #AirForce #PacFleet,
You should be in #Maui.
Where is the strongest military on the planet?
Hundreds are dead. Many hundreds are missing.
Get the hospital ship to Maui, generators and start putting up medical tents.
Please boost.

The #Operation85 program is working to #dna identify the 85 (and possibly as many as 150) service members recovered but not identified from the USS Arizona at #PearlHarbor. The project is looking to connect with those who lost family members on December 7, 1941. They were buried, remains comingled, in graves at the National Cemetery of the Pacific in #Honolulu. https://ussarizona.navy/

Being a Navy guy myself (11 years in the Norwegian Navy) I always knew the story of course.
Finally (in the 90s) I could visit the place, now working on a cruise ship.
When we sailed in to the harbor and had the local guide talking on the ship's PA system, it was hard for me, a grown up man, not to cry.
I really struggled.
Once again, with all my heart, I thank you for your service and for your ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

Wonderful to see Don Stroud on #magnumpi tonight as a #pearlharbor survivor. I first watched Stroud on Mike Hammer, but a facial injury he received while intervening in an assault meant he would only be cast as the bad guy for the majority of his career. Tonight he got to be a hero again. Not bad for a local boy from Honolulu.
Brig. Gen. Billy Mitchell, Nov. 1920, who led the US air forces in France in 1918, advocated for an independent Air Force military branch, and warned of an attack on Pearl Harbor a decade before it occurred. A great American. from our archives

If you live near #PearlHarbor, there’s delicious US #Navy jet #fuel in your drinking #water: "People call it the 'black tears of the Arizona.' You can see oil rise to the surface, making rainbows on the water. You can even smell the stuff" https://buff.ly/3VVwZG6 #NoWarNoWarming

@BixBarton fair play with that one. i've still watched it numerous times though. I can only raise you with #EnemyAtTheGates or #PearlHarbor.
A plane flies off the deck of a US Navy ship, 1910 -- a first step in naval aviation that paved the way for the Pearl Harbor attack. Photos of these steps are among the two dozen that we have collected for the next edition of our newsletter, "This Week's Best Old Photos." If you like looking at old pictures, you might like this newsletter. Lots of people do!

Turns out I can identify #PearlHarbor within 15 seconds of it starting 🤷🏻♂️
