  • Community In Pearl Harbor: This one so far had the most pages. I think it's like a preview of some book or documents, but the PDF format is more interesting on this website because you get to do more stuff to this site. There are more options for this. You'll find that there's a summary and it was copyrighted and published in 1997. Pretty recent then the other articles though. Looks like this was the final report for the US Navy. So there you go, this was a report for the Navy. Plus, where the publish date was, there was a name of a museum. Bishop Museum that is talking about the Pearl Harbor. From this, you should be learning a lot with all the different facts and stuff that you wouldn't be able to find in other articles. Since this is report, the information should be more accurate then the other stuff that you might find.
