Young Soldier Missed Pearl Harbor Warning at Fort Shafter
Pfc. W. B. Stevens, 19, found a Washington warning about a Japanese attack too late after Pearl Harbor's first wave had struck. Washington failed to reach Fort Shafter in time due to radio issues, and Stevens alerted others only after the second attack. Roosevelt later dubbed December 7, 1941 a day that will live in infamy.
