Japanese forces occupy British and American areas of the Shanghai International Settlement, following attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II
Inhabitants of the International Settlement in Shanghai, China, line sidewalks to watch as Japanese Imperial marines enter and occupy the British and American controlled parts of the city in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Japanese marines in open trucks wave to the spectators. Camera focuses momentarily on a large Japanese flag displayed on one building, where Japanese guards stand outside. Japanese soldiers climb down from a truck and enter the building. Several armed Japanese marines walk in the street. Some people in the Settlement seem intent on going about their normal activities, notwithstanding the presence of the Japanese military. However, one street is empty except for Japanese soldiers who stand guard. At the doorway of a building there, a sign is posted in Japanese referring to its occupation by Japanese military. A Type 92 Chiyoda Armored Car proceeds down a street, heading a parade of Japanese marines, led by one carrying the Japanese Rising Sun flag. Camera pans over boats in the harbor. Most appear to passenger-carrying ferry boats. At the end, the narrator refers to the sinking of the HMS Peterel and the capture of the USS Wake, the last British and American gunboats in Shanghai. The British riverboat HMS Peterel, operating on the Yangtse river, refused to surrender and was sunk (although nobody was killed) and the American Gunboat, USS Wake (PR-3) is seen near the end of the film, flying the Japanese flag, at the Shanghai dock where it was captured by the Japanese.
