Anti-aircraft shell bursts blot the sky

Panorama view of Pearl Harbor, during the Japanese raid, with anti-aircraft shell bursts overhead.

The photograph looks southwesterly from the hills behind the harbor. Large column of smoke in lower right center is from the burning USS Arizona (BB-39). Smoke somewhat further to the left is from the destroyers Shaw (DD-373), Cassin (DD-372) and Downes (DD-375), in drydocks at the Pearl Harbor Navy Yard.
