The Pearl Harbor advance-knowledge conspiracy theory is the argument that U.S. Government officials had advance knowledge of Japan's December 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor.
 Ever since the Japanese attack there has been debate as to how and why the United States had been caught off guard, and how much and when American officials knew of Japanese plans for an attack.
 In September 1944, John T. Flynn, a co-founder of the non-interventionist America First Committee, launched Pearl Harbor revisionism when he published a forty-six page booklet entitled "The Truth about Pearl Harbor".
John William Finn (23 July 1909 – 27 May 2010) was a sailor in the United States Navy who, as a chief petty officer, received the United States military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his actions during the attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II.
 As a chief aviation ordnanceman stationed at Naval Air Station Kaneohe Bay, he earned the medal by manning a machine gun from an exposed position throughout the attack, despite being repeatedly wounded.
 He continued to serve in the Navy and in 1942 was commissioned an ensign.
 In 1947 he was reverted to chief petty officer, eventually rising to lieutenant before his 1956 retirement.
 In his later years he made many appearances at events celebrating veterans.
 At the time of his death, Finn was the oldest living Medal of Honor recipient, the last living recipient from the attack on Pearl Harbor, and the last United States Navy recipient of World War II.
Day of Deceit: The Truth About FDR and Pearl Harbor is a book by Robert Stinnett alleging that the Roosevelt administration deliberately provoked and allowed the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in order to bring the United States into World War II.
 Stinnett argues that documentary evidence shows that the attacking fleet was detected through radio and intelligence intercepts and that the information was deliberately withheld from Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, the commander of the base.
The United States Fleet was an organization in the United States Navy from 1922 until after World War II.
 The acronym CINCUS, pronounced "sink us", was used for Commander in Chief, United States Fleet.
 This was replaced by COMINCH in December 1941, under , when it was redefined and given operational command over the Atlantic, Pacific, and Asiatic Fleets, as well as all naval coastal forces.
 authorized the offices of the CNO and COMINCH to be held by a single officer; Admiral Ernest J. King was first to do so, and 1944 was promoted to the five-star rank of fleet admiral.
Husband Edward Kimmel (February 26, 1882 – May 14, 1968), nicknamed "Kim", was an admiral in the United States Navy.
 At the time of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, he was Commander in Chief of the United States Fleet (CINCUS) and the U.S. Pacific Fleet (CINCPACFLT).
 He was removed from command after the December 1941 attack and reduced from four-star to the two-star rank of rear admiral.
 He retired from the Navy in early 1942.
USS "Nokomis" (YT-142/YTB-142/YTM-142) was a Woban-class harbor tug built in Bremerton, Wash, and assigned to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, in 1940.
 "Nokomis" was present during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941.
 She was the first vessel on scene at the USS "Arizona", and was called off by the officers on deck because of the imminent explosion of the battery below deck.
 It then left and helped beach the USS "Nevada", with  , and YT-153.
 The beaching of the Nevada saved Pearl Harbor's mouth from being blocked.
 After that the USS "Nokomis" fought fires and dewatered the battleship USS "California", for 3 days.
 This effort made the "California" salvageable, to be recommissioned again later in the war.
 "Nokomis" was also the last vessel to move the surviving YC-699 barge prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
 Post-war she continued serving Pearl Harbor ships until she was decommissioned in May 1973, and eventually sold for "scrap" to Crowley, in San Francisco.
 She was renamed "Sea Serpent" and served many years in the San Francisco Bay as a tug and fire boat.
 In 1989, after the Loma Prieta earthquake in the SF Bay area, "Nokomis" and "Hoga" (which had been serving the City of Oakland as a fireboat) fought fires alongside each other again.
James Otto Richardson (18 September 1878 – 2 May 1974) was an admiral in the United States Navy who served from 1902 to 1947.
 As Commander in Chief, United States Fleet (CinCUS), he protested against the redeployment of the Pacific portion of the fleet forward to Pearl Harbor, believing that a forward defense was neither practical nor useful, and that the Pacific Fleet would be the logical first target in the event of war with Japan, vulnerable to air and torpedo attacks.
 He was subsequently relieved of command in February 1941.
 His concerns were to be proved justified in December.
Isaac Campbell Kidd (March 26, 1884 – December 7, 1941) was an American Rear Admiral in the United States Navy.
 Kidd was killed on the bridge of USS "Arizona" during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
 He was the father of Admiral Isaac C. Kidd, Jr. He was a posthumous recipient of his nation's highest military honor—the Medal of Honor.
 The highest ranking casualty at Pearl Harbor, he became the first U.S. Navy flag officer killed in action in World War II as well as the first killed in action against any foreign enemy.
 A "Fletcher"-class destroyer , "Kidd" (DD-661) , was commissioned in his honor on April 23, 1943.
 The second ship named after him, "Kidd" (DDG-993) , lead ship of four "Kidd"-class destroyer s, was commissioned on March 27, 1981.
 An "Arleigh Burke"-class guided missile destroyer, "Kidd" (DDG-100) , was the third ship named after him and was commissioned on June 9, 2007.
