Description	Aerial view from Japanese plane taken during the early moments of the Pearl Harbor attack, circa 07:55 hrs on 7 December 1941.

Torpedoes have just struck USS West Virginia (BB-48) and USS Oklahoma (BB-37) on the far side of Ford Island. On the near side of the island, toward the left, USS Utah (AG-16) and USS Raleigh (CL-7) have already been torpedoed. Fires are burning at the seaplane base, at the right end of Ford Island.
