Battleship USS Pennsylvania in drydock at Pearl Harbor, with destroyers
Cassin and Downes.

The drydock flooded in the course of the attack so this picture was
probably made early in the attack.

Japanese Kongo class battleship, either Haruna or Kirishima.

I stand corrected. Thought it was USS Pennsylvania with destroyers
Cassin and Downes in drydock at Pearl Harbor. However, Pennsylvania had
3-gun turrets rather than 2-gun turrets, and Pennsylvania was set near
the drydock caisson with Cassin and Downes at the head of the drydock,
not the other way around as in this picture.
