Japanese Navy Enters Pearl Harbor Flying The Rising Sun

Footage of three ships and one submarine of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (formerly the Imperial Japanese Navy) as they enter Pearl Harbor flying the Japanese "Rising Sun" flag, the Naval ensign. The Imperial Japanese Navy was dissolved in 1945 with the unconditional surrender of Japan at the end of World War II. Since WWII, Japan's Rising Sun flag has been criticized for its association with the country's aggressive militaristic past.
