Description
We are pleased to welcome back Presenter Phil Devlin for another program featuring Connecticut connections to famous events!
This popular presentation not only deals with the numerous, interesting Connecticut connections to the infamous sneak attack, but also deals with the often overlooked historical antecedents of the attack-a battle in the Russo-Japanese War as well as a surprise attack in Italy in World War II-which render the attack in Hawaii not as big a surprise as it has been portrayed. The huge role that the Japanese obsession with oil played in the attack is also discussed.
This is a hybrid event; you can choose to attend in person or on Zoom.
