Primarily it was Sailors who defended themselves and the Naval Fleet. There were Army soldiers in Oahu positioned to defend the air base. They would number in the low hundreds on a Sunday morning. Several of the Army Air Force were able to get into several planes and fight off some of the Japanese. However, the army did not have heavy artillery set up do fire upon the Japanese planes strafing the airplanes parked around the airfield. There were not as many Army soldiers stationed in Hawaii as there were Navy sailors stationed in Hawaii.

On the Japanese side, there were probably no soldiers involved as this was an air attack involving strike aircraft launched from Japanese carriers.
