We have a separate album about this historic event!
Ze626. This plaque Commemorates the USS Ward firing the first shot on the 7th Dec. 1941 and sinking an Imperial Japanese Mini Submarine. It is located at Bishop Point, at the entrance of Pearl Harbor.
On the 7th Oct. 2019 I visited the Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit One (MDSU-1) at Bishop Point, located at the channel entrance of Pearl Harbor, I was stationed in this unit from 1981 to 1983. I noticed this plaque located on a corner of Building 17, MDSU-1 Head Quarter. I do not remember whether the plaque already existed then, but I bet it was there. That shows you how much attention I paid to history when one has a full-time job on your hands.
Better late than never, lets catch up with history about the USS Ward firing the First Shot and causing the first casualties in the WWII Pacific War. And we add a little history of Bishop Point, I was not only stationed here, but the Salvage ships I served on berthed here also. Also, it is a neat point, that this Naval Location is surrounded, landside, by the Hickam Air Force Base.
