These pilots flew bombers, dive bombers, torpedo bombers and fighters. There were approximately 350 planes involved in two waves. The planes were crewed by 1 to 3 airmen. Also, 5 midget submarines were released by a "mothersub" outside of Pearl Harbor. They were to sneak inside the harbor attack the ships of the 7th Fleet at the same time as the air attack. Each sub was crewed by 2 men. Hope this helps.
