Less than one hour after the attack on Pearl Harbor, USAAF
2nd Lt.’s Ken Taylor and George Welch make an aggressive
strike back against the enemy. Taylor, flying his P-40 Tomahawk,
is seen bringing down his second enemy aircraft, an Aichi D-31A
dive-bomber, on the morning of December 7, 1941. Welch is in
close as they chase Japanese planes heading for the open sea.
In the background, palls of smoke rise from Hangar 6 housing
the naval float-planes, the battleship Nevada, beached off Hospital
Point, and the up-turned battleship Oklahoma.
