A Date That Will Live in Infamy
Sixty two years ago on December 7th, Pearl Harbor was attacked by a massive Japanese force, and due to human error, it crippled an entire fleet, and sparked the United States' entry into World War II. Before September 11th, 2001, it was the bloodiest attack on United States soil when it took the lives of 2,390 people. Today we remember the victims, events, and the USS Arizona.
The attack on Pearl Harbor was only the beginning of a massive Japanese assault on United States territories and allies throughout the Pacific. For more information about World War II, check out the World War II Resources Page, also hosted on ibiblio.org. ¶ 11:04 PM
