| Synopsis: |
This is the first-ever account of the sinking of a Japanese midget submarine, one hour before the Pearl Harbor attack. For six decades, the sunken sub's location remained a mystery - until accidentally discovered in 2002. "First Shot" chronicles the stories of the recent discovery and the naval engagement sixty-four years ago, exploring one of the great what-if questions in our nation's history: If the warning signs had been heeded, would the outcome of the Japanese air attack have been different? Anyone interested in WW II, submarine warfare, or military history will be intrigued by the midget sub story and the warning that could have changed the shape of the Day of Infamy. |
