Best Answer

On the morning of December 7, 1941 350 Japanese planes attacked the base at Pearl Harbor and sunk ships and killed US sailors on the ships. Until 9-11 that was the only attack on US soil and just like we honor the people who died in NY we honor the men and women who died at Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor was the start of the United States joining the allies in the war against Hitler and the Japanese. It became a two front war.
