I was seven years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
Just off the top of my head -- here are a few important facts.
Japanese wanted to disable the American navy so that it would have a free hand in expanding its empire into the Pacific.
The attack was a success for the Japanese.
President Roosevelt called it a "Day that will live in infamy."
The President promptly declared war on Japan -- entering the U.S. into World War II.
Thank you Ms. Sue
Anyone else have info to add to Ms. Sue's
answer.
