  • The Indictment of Admiral Stark- Part 1

    The Indictment of Admiral Stark- Part 1
    Jan 4 2021

    This first episode examines the indictment of Admiral Harold R. Stark as Director of Naval Operations prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

    Secretary of the Navy, James Forrestal lists four charges against Admiral Stark about the critical weeks prior to Pearl Harbor. In his concluding Naval Court of Inquiry report on Stark, he refers to Pacific Fleet Commander Husband Kimmel's letter to Stark dated May 26, 1941, where Kimmel wrote that "he needed to be informed of all important developments as they occurred by the quickest and most secure means available." 

    Forrestal writes about the four charges, "In my opinion, Admiral Stark failed to give Admiral Kimmel an adequate summary of information available in Washington."

    The Indictment of Admiral Stark- Part 2
    Jan 13 2021

    The second episode continues the examination of Admiral Harold R. Stark as Director of Naval Operations prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor.  

    We hear the shocking testimonies given by Admiral Stark and Admiral Kimmel during the questioning by the Joint Committee. 

    Admiral Forrestal, in a meaningless and denigrating epitaph to the results of the Naval Court’s investigation, on August 15, 1945 – within days of the Japanese surrender – wrote that the tarnished CNO, Admiral Harold R. Stark, “... shall not hold any position in the United States Navy which requires the exercise of superior judgment.”

    This week's episode is based on the book The Indictment of the Pearl Harbor 5, by Donald J. Young, which is available on Amazon.com.

  • The Indictment of Admiral Richmond Kelly Turner- Part 1

    The Indictment of Admiral Richmond Kelly Turner- Part 1
    Jan 22 2021

    This episode attempts to unravel the actions of Admiral Kelly Turner- one of three men in the Roosevelt or Washington administration who should have been held culpable for the Pearl Harbor disaster. His correct actions prior to the attack may have led to the Pacific Fleet being aware of the Japanese plans days before it was scheduled.

    He had the reputation that labeled him, among other things, as “Terrible Turner.”  

    What gave him the right to act as an authority on both Japan and Intelligence is a mystery. 

    This week's episode is based on the book The Indictment of the Pearl Harbor 5, by Donald J. Young, and is available on Amazon.com .
