A summary of the operation follows: a) PREPARATION FOR THE ASSAULT (1) The planning for the 380 JBiA operation commenced in October. A very complete set of photographs was available at that time which were augmented continually during the planning period. Excellent photographic coverage, was- provided. Early, in the planning period, Commodores McGOVERR and FLANAGAN, who had been designated as Transport Squadron Commanders, ? were ordered to PEARL HARBOR and their- presence aided materially in the early preparation of plans , - (2) Practically all vessels assigned to the operation were new, with no combat experience. In many cases their late delivery from the build­ ing yards necessitated their proceeding to the Hawaiian Area without even the benefit of their indoctrinal training on the West Coast.

ReviewReviewssss by CandCandiiiicece Shy HoopHooper,er, Boca Grande, FL ((([email protected]([email protected]@mac.com)))).... “What were people reading during World War II?” Westholme Publishing recently answered that question by republishing three “critically acclaimed titles of the World War II years,” as part of its series, “America Reads: Rediscovered Fiction and Nonfiction from Key Periods in American History.” 1 All nonfiction, the books tell of one man’s harrowing fight for survival on an enemy-occupied island, a crucial turning point in the Pacific told from the point of view of the First Marine Division, and the action-packed hunt for a fear- some battleship in the North Atlantic. Although it does not appear that Westholme chose these particular books because of a common theme, all three project a sense of immediacy rarely found in more recent ac- counts of World War II. The narratives powerfully demonstrate how war at every level (one man, one divi- sion, one navy) is affected by preparation, determination, innovation, resilience, and chance.
