His name was Doris Miller (nicknamed Dorie) from Waco, TX, and a crewman aboard the battleship USS West Virginia. Miller was a mess cook, all that blacks were allowed to do aboard a USN ship at that time. Instead of running for cover as would have been the natural and understandable thing to do, Miller manned an anti-aircraft gun and shot down two Japanese planes.
Doris "Dorie" Miller was the famous black man from Pearl Harbor. He was a U.S. Navy sailor who displayed incredible bravery during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Despite his assigned role as a mess attendant, Miller took up arms, manned an anti-aircraft machine gun, and fought back against the Japanese attackers. His actions earned him recognition as a hero and he became an iconic figure in the Civil Rights Movement.

Hester evades Pearl's questions about the "black man," refusing to confirm or deny if she has met him. Hester's responses to Pearl are ambiguous, as she tries to protect her daughter from the truth about her involvement with the mysterious figure.
Yes, the attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise attack. The nation of Japan was going to tell America that it was coming but the Japanese man typing the message was having problems with the English language. NO DIP SHERLOCK!

Pearl Harbor was visited by mini 2 man subs a few hours before the attack of Pearl Harbor. They even found and destroied the enamy submerine. But they paied no atention to it. Pearl Harbor was also suppost to get some plains in that morning. On there radar they saw plains but even though they were early and there were more than they knew were comming they decited to let it go. Peace with Japan was stopping they even sent a letter to the president that they will be bombing Pearl Harbor. But the message din't get to him until after the atack. So the Japanese did bomb Pearl Harbor befor he got the letter. Meanning they did the worst thing you could do bombing your country without you knowing.
