They had Pearl harbour episodes the other day on the history channel wich was pretty good. Also it explained why the Japanese never sent in there 3rd wave. The first wave's main goal was aircraft, second wave's goal was the ships and the 3rd wave was to destroy the shipyards. The Japanese commander realized none of the 3 carriers could be accounted for and if the 3rd wave would have been sent, they'd be sitting ducks for the aircraft carriers. Luckily they did not know the carriers were @ Midway days away from the action.

Luckily they didn't do a ground invasion afterwards. Would not have been good.
