A Pearl Harbor the Love Story right on TNT

When it was run for the first time in Hawaii CINCPACT and his staff walked off about then minutes from this point.

1. I forgot how funny that scene was
Nothing like having the japs sink this...



The Navy was happy to cooperate but among other major errors... no US Pilots did not fight during the Battle of Britain wearing US Uniforms, we were not yet in the war... the not digitally altering the moth fleet really pissed the brass off.

4. For some reason I never make it that far
but I mean the Zeroes are so damn close to the artoo Ditos... and slow enough to track as a missile.

3. I remember sitting in the movie theater, making all the damned jokes.
They could have done it right but didn't want to spend the money.
