Description |
English: The U.S. Navy seaplane tender USS Curtiss (AV-4) afire on 7 December 1941 at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii (USA), after she was hit by a crashing Japanese Aichi D3A1 ("Val") dive bomber. The rails in the picture belong to USS Tangier (AV-8) from where the photo was taken. The repair ship USS Medusa (AR-1) is at right and is partially obscured by the rails. The timbers floating in the water in the foreground may be from USS Utah (AG-16), which had been sunk at her berth, astern of Tangier. Note the weathered paintwork on Curtiss and Medusa and that Curtiss is already equipped with an CXAM air search radar. |
