PEARL HABOUR PHOTOS STORED IN AN OLD BROWNIE CAMERA TAKEN 68 YEARS AGO.
Pearl Harbour
On Sunday, December 7th, 1941 the Japanese launched a surprise attack against the U.S. Forces stationed at Pearl Harbor , Hawaii . By planning this attack on a Sunday, the Japanese commander Admiral Nagumo, hoped to catch the entire fleet in port. As luck would have it, the Aircraft Carriers and one of the Battleships were not in port. (The USS Enterprise was returning from Wake Island , where it had just delivered some aircraft. The USS Lexington was ferrying aircraft to Midway, and the USS Saratoga and USS Colorado were undergoing repairs in the United States .)
This is amazing that this film was still good after 68 years in a foot locker.

Some of you will have to go to a museum to see what a Brownie camera looked like.
UNBELIEVABLE!!!
