This is No Drill: The History of NAS Pearl Harbor and the Japanese Attacks of 7 December 1941 (Pearl Harbor Tactical Studies Series)

Synopsis

This Is No Drill is a detailed combat narrative of the 7 December 1941 Japanese attacks on NAS Pearl Harbor. The work focuses on descriptions of actions in the air and on the ground at the deepest practical personal and tactical level, from both the American and Japanese perspectives. Such a synthesis is possible only by pursuing every conceivable source of American documents, reminiscences, interviews, and photographs. Similarly, the authors ferreted out Japanese accounts and photography from the attacks, many appearing in print for the first time. Information from the Japanese air group and aircraft carrier action reports has never before been used.--Provided by publisher.
