Today December 7th is the Pearl Harbor Day!
On the morning of Sunday, December 7, 1941, the Empire of Japan's Imperial Japanese Navy attacked the United States Pacific Fleet base at Hawaii's Pearl Harbor during a pre-emptive military strike.
Two aerial attack waves, totalling 350 aircraft, were launched from six aircraft carriers with the intent to destroy the United States Pacific Fleet.
The attack that wrecked numerous warships and hundreds of aircrafts, and killed nearly 2500 made the United States enter World War II, which finally led USA drop two atom bombs in Japan some year later and brought the end of the war.
