This first episode examines the indictment of Admiral Harold R. Stark as Director of Naval Operations prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Secretary of the Navy, James Forrestal lists four charges against Admiral Stark about the critical weeks prior to Pearl Harbor. In his concluding Naval Court of Inquiry report on Stark, he refers to Pacific Fleet Commander Husband Kimmel's letter to Stark dated May 26, 1941, where Kimmel wrote that "he needed to be informed of all important developments as they occurred by the quickest and most secure means available."

Forrestal writes about the four charges, "In my opinion, Admiral Stark failed to give Admiral Kimmel an adequate summary of information available in Washington."

The second episode continues the examination of Admiral Harold R. Stark as Director of Naval Operations prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

We hear the shocking testimonies given by Admiral Stark and Admiral Kimmel during the questioning by the Joint Committee.

Admiral Forrestal, in a meaningless and denigrating epitaph to the results of the Naval Court's investigation, on August 15, 1945 – within days of the Japanese surrender – wrote that the tarnished CNO, Admiral Harold R. Stark, "... shall not hold any position in the United States Navy which requires the exercise of superior judgment."

This episode attempts to unravel the actions of Admiral Kelly Turner- one of three men in the Roosevelt or Washington administration who should have been held culpable for the Pearl Harbor disaster. His correct actions prior to the attack may have led to the Pacific Fleet being aware of the Japanese plans days before it was scheduled.

He had the reputation that labeled him, among other things, as "Terrible Turner."

What gave him the right to act as an authority on both Japan and Intelligence is a mystery.

In this episode....the Army, in July 1944, began its three-month Army Pearl Harbor Board investigation. In examining its results, there was no hesitation to criticize and assign blame for the errors made within the War Department; namely, those of Chief of Staff, General George C. Marshall, and its War Plans director, Major General Leonard T. Gerow.

In the summary of the "Top Secret Report Of Army Pearl Harbor Board," it said, in part, that "Washington was in possession of essential facts as to the enemy's intentions that showed clearly that war was inevitable and late in November absolutely imminent."

The War Department had the information. All they had to do was either to give it to General Short or give him directions based upon it.

Bloch, commandant of the 14th Naval District at the time of the attack. This episode is part one of two parts uncovering the details of that fateful day.

On the afternoon of April 9, 1942, the doorbell rang at the house on 1230 Milan Avenue, Pasadena, California. The postman, who recognized the return address, said to Mr. Thomas Lee, who answered the door, that maybe it was from his son. In the corner of the envelope it showed that it was from Headquarters Sixth Army, in care of Postmaster, San Francisco.

Mr. Lee opened it to find a water-stained envelope inside addressed in handwriting he recognized.

"Mabel," he yelled to his wife, "It's a letter from Henry." Henry, their son, was Lt. Henry G. Lee, who was on Bataan in the Philippines. The last letter they had received from him, dated November 29, 1941, was in January. This one, dated February 12, 1942, had been en route for two months.

Through the poignant letters and poems he wrote, which were regarded as "a remarkable piece of work," this episode shares the first hand account by Lt. Henry G. Lee about his experiences as a soldier and later a prisoner of war during WW2.
