Kimmel, and Army Lt. General Walter C. Short, were relieved of their duties following the attack. Subsequent investigations will fault the men for failing to adopt adequate defense measures." True, but why not mention the only investigation that accorded Admiral Kimmel the opportunity to defend himself, THE NAVAL COURT OF INQUIRY, which most definitely did not find fault with Admiral Kimmel? Tellingly, no investigation accorded General Short the opportunity to defend himself. Regards, Tom Kimmel Your comment: “Both senior commanders at Pearl Harbor; Navy Admiral Husband E.
