Holograph note to Keith Thompson, June 6, 1958, and typed copy of letter to Missouri congressman Clarence Cannon, June 3, 1958 regarding his remarks on lack of communication and cooperation between Kimmel and General Short prior to Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Kimmel denies these allegations and asserts that he was not informed of the Japanese ultimatum of November 28, 1941 or previous intercepted message traffic. The success of attack on Pearl Harbor was due to lack of information, not inter-service rivalries.
