" ... presents 40 oral histories of December 7, 1941, and its immediate aftermath. Soldiers, sailors, airmen, nurses, chaplains and wives who were stationed at Pearl Harbor tell in their own words what they saw, what they said, what they did and ~ most important ~ how they felt that day. The narratives cover each phase of the air raid, describing what took place across the island of Oahu from many different vantage points. There are accounts from the USS Antares, attacked at sea; from the doomed vessels in Battleship Row, where the death toll was heaviest; from the Navy Yard dry docks; from barracks and hospitals; from Hickam, Wheeler, and Bellows airfields, and from the Honolulu sububs, where anxious wives waited news."
