Author Jonathan Parshall, center, was the guest of honor at a book signing and reception hosted by Kenneth DeHoff, executive director of the Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor, and his wife, Tanya DeHoff, June 4 on Ford Island. Parshall's book, "Shattered Sword: The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway," shows that most of the "conventional wisdom" about the battle is incorrect. Parshall and the DeHoffs are standing in front of a Douglas SBD Dauntless dive bomber, the plane that won the battle for the United States.
