The six carriers of the Ostasien Trägerwaffe including Graf Zeppelin, Furst Hindenburg, Peter Strasser, Freiherr von Richtofen, Kaiser Heinrich, and Furst Bismarck along with their fast heavy cruiser escorts sortied from their East Asian ports in late November 1941 and attacked without warning the US naval base at Pearl Harbor. The attack came at dawn on Sunday December 7. The attack was devastating, and included the complete destruction of the base along with it's facilities. The Germans, in their usual thorough manner attacked in three waves. The first wave of biplane torpedo bombers and fighters attacking the airfields and battleships, the second wave of dive bombers and fighters the repair facilities and dry docks, the third wave the fuel dumps and command buildings. The 3 American carriers were not in port at the time.
Okay, most of you probably know, the title of this challenge is taken from the great John Belushi in Animal House. He's making a big speach to fire up the Deltas. I love that film and got to thinking about the line in the title. What would it take to make Bluto right? Your challenge is to take the above and make a timeline that leads up to it. Have fun!!!
