Pearl Harbor was attacked on Sunday, December 7, 1941.
The Japanese army had been planning the surprise attack for some time. The United States was not at war with Japan, and not involved in WWII, so no one expected this.
Just before 8am, a fleet of Japanese bomber planes called Zeros attacked. They were assisted by small submarines that snuck into the harbor. The attack was fast, brutal and effective. American ships and planes were all close together, making for easy targets.
A second wave of attackers hit Pearl Harbor, causing even more extensive damage. More than 2,000 people were killed, and over 1,200 others were injured. A large portion of the American fleet was destroyed. December 7 has been known as a day that will 'live in infamy' ever since.
Following this attack, America declared war on the Japanese Empire. Soon after, the country became involved in WWII.
Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Imperal Japenese Navy. The Japenese Army never attacked Pearl Harbor.
