I would have to think this observation has something to do with issues as raised by a previous recent blog entry?

"Protecting a Critical US Navy Base from the Rising Threat of China"

AS IT WAS FOR THE U.S. NAVY IN 1941 SO IS IT TOO IN 2021?

Click on all images to see an enlarged view.

"The United States Naval base in San Diego is one of the largest and most important in the world, especially with respect to facing the rising threat of China.  And, yet, the Secretary of the Navy has long left this base in the vulnerable position of having only one exit point for its massive flotilla of warships."

U.S. naval base Pearl Harbor. Only one point of ingress/egress. Ships in harbor at a crucial moment their ability to sortie greatly hampered by constriction for which there is no apparent amelioration.

U.S naval base San Diego. Only point of ingress/egress. Ships in harbor at a crucial moment their ability to sortie greatly hampered by constriction for which there is no apparent amelioration.

Consider both Pearl Harbor and San Diego vulnerable to pre-emptive attack. Blocking the ingress/egress can and will in a time of war cause major if not insurmountable problems for the ?American Pacific Fleet.

AND HARDLY CAN WE DISMISS OR PRECLUDE THE POSSIBILITY OF NAVAL COMMANDO ATTACK ON PEARL OR SAN DIEGO OR THE USE OF MIDGET SUBMARINES DURING A TIME OF CRISIS OR WAR WITH CHINA.
