The US was basically unprepared for war at the time of Pearl Harbor. The person in charge of the base at Pearl Harbor believed that there was no way Japan would attack without a deceleration of war. (He was fired soon after) the base at Pearl Harbot actually had an early warning. While a crew was just about to close a training land-based radar, they found a large concentration of planes flying directly toward them. It was reported, but not taken seriously. They were believed to be bombers scheduled to be coming from the mainland. Had the number of blips on the screen been mentioned, the outcome of Pearl Harbor might have been less disastrous.
