The act on behalf of the Japanese, which many have come to know as Pearl Harbor, started the war for the US on December 8, 1941, a day after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor with no mercy, a battle in which the United States was not prepared for. The US struck back however, and fiercely, remembering their fallen comrades who died horrific deaths that needed to be avenged.
