Death of the Arizona
By Commander John Rodgaard, U.S. Naval Reserve, Peter K. Hsu, Carroll L. Lucas, and Captain Andrew Biache Jr., U.S. Naval Reserve (Retired)
On the morning of 7 December 1941, did the USS Arizona (BB-39) succumb to a torpedo attack, or did she fall victim to precision horizontal bombing?
