	Pearl Harbor Summary
		The battleship Nevada had some machine guns in her fighting tops manned as part of the alert, and it was these guns which distracted or shot down most of the torpedo planes who tried to attack her.
		This battleship, which was the sistership of Arizona, sat high and dry on stocks, with two destroyers, the Cassin and Downes, perched immediately forward of her.
		Only two American battleships were permanently lost, and of the eight present during the attack, four were armed and at sea less than two weeks after the attack.
