EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a haunting scene from the aftermath of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. On December 7th, 1941, as chaos unfolded at Bellows Field, this US Army P40 Pursuit Plane became a target for Japanese machine gunners. The wreckage depicted in this image serves as a poignant reminder of the devastation caused by that fateful day. The landscape format allows us to fully appreciate the extent of damage inflicted upon this once-mighty fighter aircraft. Its twisted metal and shattered wings serve as testament to the violence and destruction unleashed during World War II. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the consequences of war. Keystone's masterful capture in black and white adds an air of solemnity to this historical moment frozen in time. The absence of color only enhances our focus on the debris strewn across the ground – remnants of a plane that once soared through American skies with pride. This powerful image is not just about an airplane; it represents resilience, sacrifice, and determination displayed by those who fought bravely during WWII. It stands as a tribute to all members of the American Airforce who valiantly defended their country against enemy forces. As we reflect on this photograph, let us remember those who lost their lives defending freedom at Pearl Harbor and honor their memory by cherishing peace today.
