I found pics 8, 10 and 12 in "The Picture History of WWII" (formerly "Colliers Photographic History of WWII"), Grosset & Dunlap, originally published in 1946.

The pictures are credited to the US Navy.

EDIT: Also pics 1 and 4 in 2nd post.

The beginning of the end for Japan.

I too have seen some of them before but as Dowly has said really doesn't matter.

Default in the book i was reading last month

about the wahoo it did mention that the actual damage the Japanese did at Pearl was much greater than was reported both at the time and ever since that day. The book did not go into details.
