On December 7, 1941, all U.S. aircraft carriers were not in Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack; they were at sea. The USS Enterprise and USS Lexington were conducting training exercises, while the USS Saratoga was in the West Coast undergoing repairs. This absence of carriers played a crucial role in the U.S. Navy's ability to respond to the attack and contributed to the eventual success in the Pacific Theater.
