Pardon me,but but by repeating official stories we cannot learn much more
than
what we already know.

Kimmel and/or his descendants were given chance to defend themselves and
to
challenge to official version only TWICE,one Navy investigation (There
were
several Navy investigations but in only one he was allowed to defend
himself
aganist charges !!!) the other was Congressional and both of them came to
conclusion that Kimmel should be exhonorated.period.


No they didnt - period

The story of Admiral Kimmel's administration of the Pacific Fleet and
supervision of the Fourteenth Naval District as well as General Short's
administration of the Hawaiian Department in the critical days before
December 7 is the epitome of worthy plans and purposes which were never
implemented. The job of an administrator is only half completed upon the
issuance of an order; it is discharged when he determines the order has
been executed.
