The submarine report was erroneous. It was based on the mis-identification of a minesweeping float (which was being towed by the nearby USS Boggs (DD-163)) as an incoming torpedo. Other destroyers arrived on scene and depth-charged the area the suspected mini-submarine was in while the St.Louis rapidly exited the area. A number of authors have perpetuated this story by relying chiefly on the initial reports as their source material rather than the later, corrected, official history of the incident.

Also, with cold boilers, doesn’t it take SOME time to fire up the boilers? And didn’t he mention they didn’t have electricity? It gets a little dark below deck with no lights…

What about the mini-sub they found a few years ago?

@@wayneabbott652 Turns out that was sunk by the Ward BEFORE the attack on PH.

@@wayneabbott652 That mini-sub was already sunk by USS Ward nearly half an hour before the bombs began to fall in Pearl Harbor. However there were four more mini-subs on the same mission and five large subs that had delivered them waiting outside the harbor.

With boilers cold, how did she move at all?

That Nautilus - SSN-571 - is not the WWII Nautilus.

That’s the nuclear attack submarine

​@@BUTCH0120: Your correct, SS-168 USS NAUTILUS shown in this video was sold for scrap in 1945.

They were not all the same class

ZING!

Oops

@@Todd.P they saw the air craft overhead.

It’s not that it’s hard to come by it’s that there isn’t a lot of it to begin with.

Royal Ncy ships always have a very British sounding name, and I agree this sounds British

The next sub was named "HMS Crumpets"

USS Argonaut (V-4/SF-7/SM-1/A-1/APS-1/SS-166) was a submarine of the United States Navy, the first boat to carry the name. Argonaut was laid down as V-4 on 1 May 1925 at Portsmouth Navy Yard. She was launched on 10 November 1927, sponsored by Mrs. Philip Mason Sears, the daughter of Rear Admiral William D. MacDougall, and commissioned on 2 April 1928. Although never officially designated as "SS-166", at some point she displayed this number on her conning tower.[11]  USS Argonaut underway.

Errr, Greek mythology..? Jason &

​@@sarkou34It was a joke about British.. eh nevermind lol

Argonaut Class, they only made 1, not unusual back in the day to only make 1 or a few of a class. The first boat built of a class name, is the class name when it come to US submarines. There are also variants within a class too, but it is its still part of the same class.

Lol am second

Those are Aichi D3A “Val” dive bombers, which did not have retractable landing gear. Still, the videos weren’t good-footage of US SBD Dauntless dive bombers attacking Pearl Harbor (twice!), and the footage of the flag raising on Iwo during the description of the victory on Saipan? This is a chronic problem with this channel.
