"Hickham Field - The Second Attack"

Hickham Field was attacked twice by the Japanese on Dec. 7, 1941, along with other locations on Oahu. Hickham Field was a U.S. Army airbase located right next to Pearl Harbor. During the second attack, Nakajima B5N "Kates" from the aircraft
carrier Zuikaku dropped 250kg bombs on the hangars, barracks, and runway. Overhead, a Mitsubishi A6M2 "Zero" from the carrier Akagi is piloted by Lt. Saburo Shindo as he draws a P-40B Tomahawk away from the bombers below. Other Zero fighters strafed the field as American pilots and ground crews tried desperately to man their planes.
