I received these images in a recent email and thought I'd upload them here to share with the community.

Can anyone identify the plane in shot 5? I'd make it a "name this" thread except I have no idea what it is so I couldn't announce a winner. Probably a fighter, but he's pretty low and appears to be banking sharply instead of zooming on a strafing run, so perhaps a Val jinking after having dropped his load?

Then again might be an allied fighter.

Jim

Great Photos.

Do you know when this one was taken? during or after the attack.

I see:

1. Oklahoma turned turtle;

2. West Virginia sunk; but

3. Arizona does not appear to be very damaged.

Well i will judge this foto was taken after the attack and like few days after:

Becouse:
-No Smoke from Arizona Wreck
-No smoke from any other vessels
-California laying on the buttom of the Harbor and she sunk well after the attack was over

Unfortunately the photo’s had no captions, just a series of 18 images imbedded in one email, so I can’t tell you specific details with any certainty.

Definitely after the attack though, since all fires are out and there is no smoke anywhere from smoldering fires in the ships. My guess is it is several days after the attack.

Arizona settled to the bottom in pretty shallow water I believe, and if you look closely it is underwater. Only the superstructure is above water.

It must be after, since Nevada(4) and Vestal(5) have left.

You can see Arizona is sunk, but she does not look so badly damaged from this angle.

I visited Hawaii in 1999 and spent a day at Pearl Harbour. The deck of the Arizona is just 1-2 feet below the surface and is very visible. Oil is still bubbling up from the wreck. It gives you a very eerie and solemn feeling, since the Harbour does not look that different from that day in 1941...

Can't be a Val, no fixed gear. Actually it is hard to tell if it is coming or going. Guys on the sub don't seem to be looking at it, might even be a P-40 patrolling later in the day or even on the 8th
