&gt; At exactly 7:49 the air waves crackled… “To-To-To !” It was the first syllable of the Japanese word for “Charge,” and it meant that the first wave was now attacking. But it told nothing about the circumstances of that attack.<p>&gt; A few minutes later there was another message… “Tora, Tora, Tora l” (Tiger, Tiger, Tiger!) It was the prearranged code word for conveying the news that complete surprise had been achieved.
