This guy was a cook as untill after pearl harbour the only job coloured people could have in the navy was to be a cook (can anyone remember the medal he got??)
This is an awesome scene and in fact my favourite in the movie, the only thing that is a bit off is if you watch the gun closely throughout the scene, it switches from having two ammo canisters to one ammo cansiter, to none at all. Then when hes gunning down that plane coming at him the two ammo canisters are open when they should be closed ? hes firing an empty gun pretty much haha. I dont know what was going on here, i think 2 ammo canisters would block the view i guess
This scene pretty much MADE that entire battle scene maybe the even the entire movie worth seeing! When i was in high school my history teacher was talkin about how during the real battle there was a story a ship gunner like in this scene that shot down like 5 or 6 something close to that number. This might be a small tribute for that.
this was infact the only scene worth watching in the whole movie, the rest of it is garbage. if they made cuba the star this movie would of been a classic instead of a tomato.
HES MY FAVE CHARACTER!!!!!!!!!! I CALL HIM COOK HES SO AWESOME!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love u cook im ur biggest fan i wanna meet u someday!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D lololololoololololololololoololololololoolol but really i wanna meet him
This scene is perfect from the actor right down the the music be played.. Im from the UK and show my respects to all the US service men who died that day.
He died 2 years later on a submarine mission in the Pacific so ive read. Never fired a gun in his life till that point and as a cook shot down 2 planes. A true patriotic soldier i would say
He was called Doris Miller, he was the first African American to be awarded the Navy Cross, the 3rd highest honour in the Navy. He was presumed dead but was actually Missing In Action after his ship got sunk on the 24th November 1943.
@494industries I think he got the Navy Cross, either way he most definetly deserved it!!

This scene is great mostly for the fact that blacks weren't allowed to shoot weapons on the ships back then.

I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school (school school).
He was terrible in that film.
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a bigger part (part part).
He's way better than Ben Affleck.
And now, all I can think about is your smile, and that shitty movie, too.
Pearl Harbor sucked, and I miss you
