- Summary
- "Following Pearl Harbor, commanders in the Pacific and Hawaii were accused of dereliction of duty and relieved of command. Hours following, the Philippines commander suffering a similar defeat, was awarded the Medal of Honor. This re-examines Pearl Harbor to answer the questions: were these convenient scapegoats; and was the attack the surprise Americans were led to believe?"--
