Adm. James O. Richardson:
This was my command, and it's become habit to worry about the security of the fleet. I can't forget that the British, flying some old biplanes, torpedoed and sank three ltalian battleships at Taranto. A harbor very much like this one.
Admiral Husband E. Kimmel:
Well, l share your concern, Jim, but CNO doesn't think it can happen here.
Adm. James O. Richardson:
Why not?
Admiral Husband E. Kimmel:
Well, a torpedo dropped from a plane will plunge to a depth of 75 feet or more before it levels off.
Adm. James O. Richardson:
l know and Pearl is only 40 feet deep. l'm still worried, Kim.
