Thanks for understanding guys, I'm glad you like the pics despite the initial premise.  I have also since set the person straight that sent them to me originally.

Some people just can't help themsleves. They love to tell whoppers and think everyone else is stupid or something.


well i haven't seen these so they were unseen to me. someone could have sent those to me and i could have made the same mistake since i also don't know what the life is of a roll of film.

Actually there is a chain email with these pictures going around that says something to that basic effect, with permutations on relatives involved.  Cut the guy some slack.

You can find all these pictures and others at http://www.history.navy.mil

The first time they were posted here was in this thread.  I know I've gotten that e-mail as well.

Great photos either way.  Not sure why the squeaker is so bent out of shape on an honest mistake.

I bet you are a little fuzzy abt the details!

You didn't think you would get busted posting that whopper?


Woooooooooooooooooooo, calm down mate. Your madder than a glaswegian on a Saturday night after closing time! I havent seen these pics either, so in all fairness, Maybe he hadnt either! I never claim to be a huge Pearl Harbour buff, but If he had looked in his books (Presuming he has some) and never found them, thenhe may well have thought they were authentic and unseen. Quit with the sudden slaggin off. Doesnt do you ANY favours in this board. You dont know anything of his family, so dont doubt that MAYBE one of them was at pearl Harbour on Dec 7th. I could brag a lot on this board, all of which you would claim as a wopper. However, I am 'A bit fuzzzy on the details' of my family. I never knew my great Grandad, and Ive looked him up on the internet to no avail. Does that make his life and successes a lie? Think before you post.
Thanks for sharing though bro, was awsome to see. One thing that caught my eye that first made me doubt they were authentic was in the second photo I think it is, a tiny bit of the smoke is in colour. Only a tiny bit, but it still stood out. Thanks again though.

Silat- Im one of those Preteens you say, im under 25. Yea I do have problems at times, but it doesnt not excuse this persons behavour. If I have a problem, I would never vent it on any post that was for the good of the community. sir, Just saying, better not to fully generalize. (Plenty generalizing goes on in my village about the yanks! ;) )

That e-mail has been floating around for years, everyone seems to get it from a family member who claims they "found" them somewhere. I got it last year from my Great Uncle who claims he got them from an old Navy buddy (hes a retired SeaBee, but hes also totally full of sh** and can't be trusted as far as you can throw him). Give it a few months and we'll see them again.
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

Seem them before but still good pictures though


As for the plane in the middle of the picture - no one seems to be running around or pointing at it so my guess would be American plane
