I just had this great link emailed to me.
I certainly hadn't seen the photos before, maybe you haven't either...

Regards, Stuart

Nice assortment of pics but they haven't really been hidden. The Pearl Harbor shots are all in the Naval Historical Center files. I used some of them for a 50th Anniversary commemorative display at my squadron in 1991.

Cheers for the update!
Another one of these silly fake emails then...
I was reading about an old Kodak Brownie camera having been found containing a film that was restored and developed...:-)
Still, very powerful photos worth seeing.

Fraid so Stu, you will find that most of the Pearl Harbour photos were taken by Tai Sing Loo.

The ship blowing up is most probably USS Mount Hood at Manus.

All the navy ones have been previously published in books etc.
