Five pages from the January 1946 issue of All Hands (pages 15–19). Published more than four years after the attack, this postwar account traces how the Japanese carrier striking force planned and executed its surprise assault on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Drawing on wartime investigations and postwar interrogations of Japanese commanders, the article reconstructs the planning, approach, and execution of the attack that brought the United States into World War II.
