About 1975 or '76, my buddy Dave and I drove up from where we lived in Humboldt County, CA to Brookings, OR to check out housing prospects, as he and his family were considering a move there. On our way up Highway 1 I pulled over to pick up a hitchhiker. He was a man apparently in his late 40s or 50-ish. As we got back on the road we introduced ourselves to him. Soon it became apparent that this man was troubled by something in his past. As we began to share our Christian faith with him, he stated that he didn't believe there was a God, because God wouldn't have allowed all of his friends to die like they did. Turned out that he had been in the Navy during the war. He had left USS Arizona very shortly before the attack, possibly a transfer or on leave, I don't recall. He had tears of grief and bitterness toward a God that he said he didn't believe in. It was sad to hear him speak. After dropping him off we never saw or heard from him again.
The fate of USS NEVADA seems a shame. If any ship deserved to be preserved as a museum ship of the US NAVY it was her.
А не хуево америкосы по соплям то получили от японцев тогда.😂😂😂
That's navy know how 🇺🇸
The attack that made Americans join in world war 2.
no purple haired freaks or other things .
Reminds me that I need to purchase some War Bonds today 🙂🙃
My great uncle 2nd Lt., Robert A. Dempster, Jr, was co-pilot of the Pistol Pakin Mamma, 7th/BG30/38BS in this video. Shown at :57. I suspect this is T/Sgt, Philip Brodziak, top gunner and flight engineer on top of the Pistol Pakin Mamma. Also, tail numbers appear to be (42-72975) Pacific Avenger (1) @ :50.. Chambermaid, 42-100227 and PPM, 42-72989 were each lost on September 11, 1944; Chambermaid crashing back at base on Saipan and Pistol Pakin Mamma being destroyed by a direct hit over Marcus Island...killing my uncle, and 8 crew; leaving navigator Richard Smith as the only survivor and a POW.

I am trying to find information on Warrant Shipwright George John Lawson who perished on this ship 19 Aug 1941, I Cannot find anything about where the ship was when this happened.
Pearl Harbor...Honor and Glory!! Hallowed ground.
I think the men of Taffy 3 would have a much different feeling for Halsey. He was the Navy's version of MacArthur, another glory hound that was more about promoting his own image than in really fighting the war. Halsey should have left part of the fleet to protect the nearly helpless Taffy ships and the transports but he was more interested in making a name for himself by going after four impotent Jap carriers. The Captains and crews of those destroyers and destroyer escorts did a far better job in turning back the Jap threat and gave a much better account of themselves than the glory seeking Halsey ever did. There is an old saying that you can gain all kinds of Attaboys to your credit but all it takes is one Awshit to wipe them all out. Halsey's actions destroyed any good he may have done prior to that battle. To this day I have nothing but utter contempt for Halsey and MacArthur.
At 11:17 you Jack Pennick, exiting a boat. Jack was a chief warrant officer in the Navy in World War II, serving under John Ford, the director, in the Office of Strategic Services field photo unit.
I was wondering who that officer was, and trying to make out his rank, but the image was not clear enough. Glad to know this. Thanks.
5:16 YT-146! That's Hoga! That's insane seeing her here, I've walked on her decks and spun her helm! She's a museum ship in Little Rock now, right next to submarine Razorback! Little vessel, big part of history. Oh the stories she could tell us...
Glad you got to see her strutting her stuff! Oh, history! Right?
Interesante este video.
Victory At Sea outtakes? The thing that jumps out at me is that our nation was in an all-out war... and pretty much all you see is people standing around. LOL. Loved the sequence of the Hudson, Liberator, Bolo, and Fort. Seeing all the city scenes also. It's a little sad that everyone in the film is dead. Maybe some of the children shown in the city are still alive.
such a shame Nevada ended her career that way, what a museum ship she would be today.
Indeed, same with Enterprise. But at least Nev made the Navy pay for it by being as stubborn as she possibly could and refusing to be killed by nearly everything they had to throw at her! Two A bombs? Not a problem. A state of the art scuttling charge? Please, you can do better than that. Several days of shelling from Iowa and three crusiers? Not even close. A torpedo droped from an Avenger at point blank range? Okay, you cheated but I'll give it to ya this time...
It must have been a big day for all hands when their ship transitions from being a pumped-out wreck raised from the sea bed to coming into dry dock for proper repairs. Those old battleships got their revenge, primarily used for shore bombardment in the island-hopping campaigns. Too thirsty and slow to keep up with the fast carrier task force that soon evolved. Hats off to the salvors and their hard work bringing those ships back to life.
Must've been quite a feeling for crews like the Nevada to get their ships refitted and return to the fight.
The Japanese plan to attack at Port particularly at pearl harbor was flawed to begin with in the very fact that due to the shallow depth of that harbor made salvage operations possible where as if they would drawed them out into the open waterways the attack would of most likely been just as successful and made salvage vastly more difficult if not impossible.
Last time I visited Pearl Harbor, there was a Marine carrier and two other ships at docks, with fairly small American flags. Out in n the harbor, off of Ford Island, there were 4 IJN ships, anchored…2 frigates and 2 destroyers, flying huge rising sun flags. Seemed more than a little disrespectful.
Nice video. Pearl Harbor sailor for 20 years, so imagine my reaction right around time 12:51. Dude! Why are you wearing your service dress blues in Hawaii? Did you not read the Plan of the Day for the Uniform of the Day? Do you not notice a difference between you and literally every other sailor walking around? Of course, now that I'm thinking about it a couple of explanations come to mind that are entirely plausible. Number one, and most likely is that he just arrived in Aloha Land from the mainland where the Uniform of the Day is blues and he hasn't had time to unpack his seabag yet.
I noticed that right away. I'm surprised Shore Patrol hadn't ordered him back to his ship to change into his whites. Maybe that was the last thing on their mind at that time.
I had the honor of manning the rail for Arizona aboard the USS Kitty Hawk in 1984. I'll never forget that. Both ships are gone now. One is a memorial, and the other, the Kitty Hawk, has been turned into scrap metal in Brownsville, Texas.
Did you know having a foreskin in 1942 what's considered not cool
First allow me to say honor and thanks to all those that served and especially those that perished throughout the war. That being said, I’ve lived a fairly long life with the legacy of Pearl Harbor and the way people go on about those old tubs that were sunk never ceases to amaze me. They were old and obsolete at the outbreak of the war and really much too slow to keep pace with a modern fleet. They were junkers at best. The battleships that were built to replace them were so far superior that there bears no comparison and to think that most of the WW2 constructed ships were but a few years old when they were declared obsolete and struck from the registry should give evidence of the fact that the Pearl fleet was floating scrap when the Japs attacked. Not every man that served that day was a hero, there were many cowards as well. I recall a woman telling that her dad who was stationed with the Army there, crawled under a barracks and hid with fear during the attack. She should have been ashamed to repeat it. And that music played in the films is the worst.
This video is a fake
Yes my father was on that ship when it got bombed found in the back of the wreckage then put a 35-year career in the Navy JAMES R WOOYHAND .
Salvage of these great ships is going on very quickly in this film. I loved that all the servicemen were carrying their gas masks on liberty.
Notice the early war roundels on the planes and red and white rudders colors , changed to blue and white roundels and no painted rudders later in the summer of '42 iirc
I’ve never thought about that. I wonder why the change?
@@jetpilot3714 To get rid of the red. Trigger happy gunners were shooting at any airplane that had red in the insignia so in May '42 the order came down to paint it all out.
My Grandpa served on the USS Pelias. He was Chief Petty Officer - Master at Arms when he left the service. During the Pearl Harbor attack, the USS Pelias shot down a Torpedo bomber and damaged another before moving to conduct rescue operations along battle ship row. He told me the story of them trying to cut through the hull of the Arizona with torches to rescue trapped sailors. He said the sound of the trapped men banging against the bulkheads stayed with him forever. When the Pelias arrived in Australia, he met my grandmother :)
Fantastic. God bless America. One Japanese commander got it spot-on. All they did was awaken a sleeping giant.
Spring of 1942, before Coral Sea and Midway?
I love the fact that you can still see them pumping the water out on the raised battleships. Some people have commented on it being primarily an "air war" after the Pearl Harbor attack, but please DO NOT FORGET these precious battle ships and cruisers were (everyone saved!) used in the attacks on all the islands that were liberated.
Everyone saved? Where was the Oklahoma and the Arizona during these attacks🤨
My Grandad George Catherall would have been on one of these British T class submarines. He could be on this film. George Catherall Chief Stoker RN.
Incredible to realize that the Japanese, as smart as they were, could overlook the importance of the submarine docks and facilities, the fuel storage tank farms and the massive dry docks needed for repairs. These oversights doomed the Japanese war effort from the start. There's no way they could have known our carriers would not be in Pearl that day. Everything else was ready and waiting for them to hit, but they didn't. The result? Midway.
Hawaiian Islands in the 1940s & 1950s a true tropical paradise, saddens me this is no longer the case 70 years hence.
Thanks for the glimpse into history.
Watching this I was thinking that during this time period the battles of the Coral Sea and Midway happened. Also I was struck by seeing servicemen walking around in civilian areas carrying helmets and gas masks, I knew this was the case but seeing color video of it brought a whole new dimension.
NOW, THEY HAVE BOMBED AND SUNK USA FROM THE INSIDE, WASH. DC, USA
Pity the ship names weren’t overwritten so to know which is which The Arizona is obvious
All those blueejackets standing on Nevada's fantail " Turn too bitches commence ship's work !" 😎
Videos like this are priceless
Lindo video mi abuelo ahí tenía 24 años
Herd of squids diddyboppin' crack me up - the street wasn't rolling enuff for 'em after months at sea. Halsey's face shows concern for his record at Leyte & the two typhoons; he wasn't a genius, he couldn't cure the ills of a messed-up command structure, & weather forecasting & comm were embryonic: He was a tough SOB, fixing a Japanese problem the moment he arrived in Sopac to wrap the Solomons & onward, whenever he was on shift; he was America's great fighting admiral, good for copy at home as well as battle, & our only real peer vs Cunningham & the British panoply (Spruance was too closeted while Nimitz was a fixer; King was the Real SOB, but didn't make good company w/ our allies, while Fletcher sorta got the shaft) 💔.
I have a coast guard academy 1944 yellow gold ring 10k, how can I sell it?
Amazing footage! The battleships in color, plus the US Navy tug USS Hoga (YT-146) which still exists today as a museum ship in Arkansas...
Interesting street scenes. Uniforms mandatory even off duty. Those males in civilian attire would have been exempted from service due to the criticality of their civilian job to the war effort. Maybe some medical exemptions for service, but most fought those categories and were pained not to be accepted for service
I have a tenet in a house I own that is 96. I charge her no rent, just the tax and insurance for the house. Amazing times she lived.
