On December 7, 1941, during the surprise-attack by the Japanese that brought the United States into World War II, two commanders were in positions of overall leadership at Pearl Harbor for the Americans. On the naval side, Admiral Husband E. Kimmel was in command of the naval base and all attendant naval units. On the army side, Lieutenant General Walter C. Short was in command of land-forces stationed in Hawaii.
