Two American P-40 pilots who were able to get off the ground for Pearl Harbor. 
There have been many movies and docudramas depicting the Pearl Harbor attack.  Most, particularly, the ones supposedly based on fact, showed short clips of a couple of P-40 pilots getting airborne and shooting down Jap planes.  But I, for one, never had seen the true story and more detailed info on who these two pilots were and their actions and associated events while airborne.  The you tube™ site below contains a superb video of that story.  Hope you'll pass it on to say that history matters .
