    I know everyone says the animation keeps getting better and better, but I have to say it again. The models on the aircraft are very well done. Paint fade on the leading edges, scrapes up and down the fuselage, and animation while flying is fantastic.
    Idk how many people you have animating these, but they should be proud of their work!
    Very well done!

    Also fun fact for those who don’t know, West Virginia was recovered after sinking. Really it is a interesting story how they recovered all those battleships and highly suggest looking into it.

    Thanks for bringing more attention to Miller's amazing actions.
    So much great animation in this video. The palm trees, vegetation, and algae at the beginning must have taken loads of time but really help depict Pearl Harbor as the idyllic location mentioned in the narration. The weathering on the close ups of Japanese dive bombers adds some additional realism, and the assorted working parts of the Browning machine gun look well represented. It's clear the team pays attention to smaller details and I really appreciate that. Thanks again!

He really went above the call of duty and saved his fellow Navy men; I heard there is a statue of him in rememberence in his home town Waco, Texas.

    Mitsuo Fuchida (淵田 美津雄, Fuchida Mitsuo, 3 December 1902 - 30 May 1976) was a Japanese captain[1] in the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service and a bomber aviator in the Japanese navy before and during World War II. He is perhaps best known for leading the first wave of air attacks on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941. Working under the overall fleet commander, Vice Admiral Chūichi Nagumo, Fuchida was responsible for the coordination of the entire aerial attack.
    After the war ended, Fuchida became a Christian evangelist and traveled through the United States and Europe to tell his story. He settled permanently in the United States (although he never became a U.S. citizen).
