Locations Of Warships Of The United States Navy December 7 1941

Last Revised 10/2003

Note The List Is Not To Infer Locations At The Exact Moment Of The Japanese Attack - 0755 12/07/41
Rather The Ships Were At Listed Location At Some Point During Sunday December 7 1941
That is the best I can do here.
