Rohl controversy
Cite I added, Hearings Before The Joint Committee On The Investigation Of The Pearl Harbor Attack; Part 29, Proceedings Of Army Pearl Harbor Board. Washington, D.C.: United States Government Printing Office. 1946., contain some discussion around page 2022 on Sverdrup's relationship with Hans-Wilhelm Röhl and the Rohl-Connolly Co. [See Schooner Te Vega] and Pearl Harbor Defense Delay Blame Placed. That very nasty controversy swept up Sverdrup in connection with "partying" and such. He came out pretty well. The others, not so much. Col. Wyman, CoE in Hawaii involved in the Hawaii defenses and South Pacific airfields was damaged. The reference is a large PDF file, 60mb or so here.
