Why is Pearl harbor so well known?
The reason why Pearl Harbor is so well know is that it is the location of the United States Naval Fleet that was bombed by the Japanese Imperial Navy on December 7, 1941. It was the cause of the US entering World War 2. At Pearl Harbor now there is a memorial of the USS Arizona and another ship. Many veteran naval men have had their remains put down in the water with the USS Arizona. There are many special events conducted at that National Park in Pearl Harbor yearly.
Was there a bombing on Pearl Harbor?
The Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii is what finally brought the US into World War II. There was massive devastation as this large naval installation was caught entirely unaware. Large portions of the US navy was destroyed in that one fell swoop by the Japanese kamikaze pilots. The US had to scramble to rebuild ships for the remainder of the war. There is a memorial to one of the ships that went down in relatively shallow water in the harbor, the USS Arizona. Many visitors of all nationalities visit it every day.
Why were the Americans angry at themselves for entering the war at Pearl Harbor?
If we were angry at ourselves, it would be because Japan caught up with our pants down. The feeling at the time was that WWII was Europe's war and we needed to stay out of it. Of course all bets were off when Pearl Harbor happened.
