The Condor sends a blinker-light message to the destroyer Ward: “Sighted submerged submarine on westerly course, speed 9 knots.”]]> 2019-01-30 19:02:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/325995368 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/325998465 he carriers turn into the wind, and the first wave of planes — 183 fighters, bombers, and torpedo planes — roars into the sky. Pilots reconfirm their navigation by using a Honolulu radio station’s music as a guiding beam. The armed forces are a lot bigger and the Japanese are planning the attack.]]> 2019-01-30 19:08:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/325998465 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326000124 The U.S. destroyer Ward, having found the submarine reported by the Condor, moves in for the kill. The second shot strikes the submarine at the waterline. The submarine heels over and appears “to slow and sink.”]]> 2019-01-30 19:11:32 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326000124 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326000864 We have attacked, fired upon, and dropped depth charges upon submarine operating in defensive sea area.” Outerbridge believes that the message will show superiors that the destroyer had not just seen a submarine but actually had “shot at something.”]]> 2019-01-30 19:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326000864 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326001726 One of the two privates on duty looks at the radar oscilloscope and can’t believe his eyes. He asks the other private to take a look — and he confirms the sighting: 50 or more aircraft on a bearing for Oahu. ]]> 2019-01-30 19:14:30 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326001726 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326002392 Adm. Husband Kimmel, commander in chief of the Pacific Fleet. Because there had been so many “false reports of submarines” recently, Kimmel decides to “wait for verification of the report.” This is from a decoded message.]]> 2019-01-30 19:15:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326002392 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326004018 By now the planes are about 70 miles away. The lieutenant believes that the radar had picked up a flight of U.S. B-17 bombers heading from California to Hawaii. For security reasons, he cannot tell this to the radar operators. All he says is, “Well, don’t worry about it.”]]> 2019-01-30 19:18:49 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326004018 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326008063  learn that Japanese negotiators in Washington have been told to break off talks.

He orders his telegraph operator to tap out: attack. Then other taps: attack, surprise achieved.]]> 2019-01-30 19:27:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326008646 rebeccal44 https://padlet.com/rebeccal44/j5me3itrielm/wish/326009330 A reckless U.S. pilot, he thinks. Then he sees “something black fall out of that plane” and realizes it’s a bomb. Ramsey runs to a radio room and orders the telegraph operators to send out an uncoded message to every ship and base: AIR RAID ON PEARL HARBOR X THIS IS NOT DRILL. The coordinated attack begins as dive bombers strike the Army Air Forces’ Wheeler Field, north of Pearl Harbor, and Hickam Field, near Ford Island’s Battleship Row. The Japanese, wanting control of the air, hope to destroy American warplanes on the ground. Most U.S. planes have been parked wingtip-to-wingtip in neat rows to make it easy to guard them against sabotage. Most are destroyed.
