AFIO NOTICE
Saturday, 09 May 2015, 11:30 am-2:00 pm – Melbourne, FL – Pearl Harbor Scholar Thomas Kimmel addresses AFIO Florida Satellite Chapter on “The Story Within the Pearl Harbor Story.”
Thomas Kimmel is a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, a former FBI Special Agent, and the grandson of Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, the Commander of the Pacific Fleet during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941. Coming from a family of dedicated scholars and public servants committed to protecting the United States, Tom has carried on that legacy with honor and determination.
Admiral Kimmel was stripped of his command, reduced in rank, and publicly disgraced after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Tom believes his grandfather was shamelessly scapegoated and, worse, unjustly accused by the House of Representatives of having failed to prevent both World War II and the Cold War. These accusations weighed heavily on Tom, compelling him to devote years to studying the truth behind Pearl Harbor and using his public speaking opportunities to address the allegations and restore his grandfather’s honor.
Tom served with distinction in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War aboard three warships before attending John Marshall Law School. In 1973, he began a 25-year career with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. His service included:
- Investigating organized crime in Cleveland
- Serving on the House Appropriations Committee Surveys and Investigations Staff at CIA Headquarters
- Heading the FBI office in East Texas
- Leading the Labor Racketeering Unit at FBI Headquarters
- Directing the National Drug Intelligence Center in Johnstown, Pennsylvania
- Serving on the President’s Council on Integrity and Efficiency
- Acting as Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Philadelphia Division, where he led the Foreign Counterintelligence and Terrorism Programs during the first World Trade Center attack in 1993
After retiring from the FBI, Tom continued serving his country as a consultant to the Bureau, addressing major espionage scandals within the FBI and CIA.
Tom is scheduled to speak at the Indian River Colony Club, At Ease Club, located at 1936 Freedom Dr, Melbourne, FL 32940.
