List of fast moving destroyers sunk at Pearl Harbor


Start of List
End of List


The 3 destroyers 'sunk' at Pearl Harbor were all in dry dock at the
time and were repaired and returned to service.


The only destroyer on patrol damaged was the USS Helm. The
bombs aimed at her missed but some damage was done by
strafing. It was minor and she stayed on patrol joining the escort
group of the USS Saratoga.

Alexander... dude, keep it coming, you have me in stitches. *I haven't
laughed so hard over someone's misbegotten posts in, like, forever.
Do you read this stuff before you hit 'Send'?

You asserted that Japanese aircraft "did a real job" on 'fast-moving
destroyers' during the Pearl Harbor attack. *When Keith properly showed
that no moving destroyers were damaged other than by strafing, the best
you can do is talk about tugs and subchasers?

Keep it coming!

Jeff


Here is a list of the ships in or * near Pearl Harbor during the
attack. # means sunk or destroyed.
