Fires at Cavite Navy Yard resulting from the Japanese air raid on December 10,1941. Fifty-four bombers of the 11th Air Fleet were detailed from Formosa and attacked at 1300 hours. Twenty-seven attacked ships and small craft in the bay and the attack lasted for two hours. The entire yard was set ablaze; the power plant, dispensary, repair ships, warehouses, barracks, and radio station received direct hits. Greatest damage was done by the fire which spread rapidly and was soon out of control. Adm. Rockwell estimated that five hundred men were killed or seriously wounded. (U. S. Army Photo)
