On December 7, 1941, Japanese planes attacked the United States Naval Base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii Territory, killing more than 2,300 Americans. The U.S.S. Arizona was completely destroyed and the U.S.S. Oklahoma capsized. A total of twelve ships sank or were beached in the attack and nine additional vessels were damaged. More than 160 aircraft were destroyed and more than 150 others damaged. The following day President Franklin Roosevelt, addressing a joint session of Congress, called December 7 a date which will live in infamy. Declaring war against Japan! The attack led to the United States entry into World War II. God bless always, B https://youtube/watch?v=lvYolFZUnX8
