If I launched a attack this Morning in 2004 on Norfolk, VA how prepared
would they be? About the same..... Oceania NAS might scramble jets.
Most ships in port would not be ready to steam out.
No torpedo nets, Live ammo mostly in the magazines,
lots of guys on shore. My subs could launch cruise missles
and sink most of the fleet today beter than a flock of Vals & Kates.

The difference being the commanders at Pearl Harbor had been
sent a message from Washington that began

'This dispatch is to be considered a war warning.'
