Hello and Welcome
This web site is your launching point to learning about the true untold story of the "Story Within The Pearl Harbor Story". The quest of the Kimmel and Short families and their supporters to persuade the President of the United States to issue a proclamation, posthumously nominating Pearl Harbor commanders, Adm. Husband Kimmel and Gen. Walter Short, respectively the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army commanders during the 7 December 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, for retirement at their highest wartime ranks—Admiral and Lieutenant General—under the Officer Personnel Act of 1947.
Congress passed a law in 2000 recommending that this administration advance Kimmel and Short on the retired list. To date, the administration has not done so, and refuses to release requested information explaining why.
Learn more and assist in this righteous fight for the vindication of Adm. Kimmel and Gen. Short.
Thank You,
Tom Kimmel
