The surprise attack by Japanese forces on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, may be summarized briefly as follows: Approaching the Hawaiian islands by stealth from the northwest, a large Japanese task force released two waves of warplanes that systematically bombed naval and land targets primarily on the island of Oahu. With minimal losses, the Japanese attack left numerous large and small ships damaged or sunk. America was now at war. Yet, significantly, Pearl Harbor was soon fully operational, many of the damaged ships would be repaired, and not a single American aircraft carrier was affected, as none were in the harbor at the time.
