U.S. Army personnel examine a bomb crater near Roosevelt High School on southern Mount Tantalus on Oahu
The crater was created on March 4, 1942 at 2:10am by the explosion of one of four 250kg (551 lbs) bombs released by H8K1 Emily Tail Y-71 (No. 1) pilot Lt. Hisao Hashizume attempting to bomb Pearl Harbor but the target was obscured by clouds and blackout conditions on the ground. In the foreground are trees damaged by the explosion.
