At 7:55 a.m. Hawaii time, a Japanese dive bomber bearing the red symbol of the Rising Sun of Japan on its wings appears out of the clouds above the island of Oahu. A swarm of 360 Japanese warplanes followed, descending on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor in a ferocious assault. The surprise attack struck a critical blow against the U.S. Pacific fleet and drew the United States irrevocably into World War II.

Lt Col Charlie Brown I visited there in March 2009 (Pearl Harbor memorial). To see the Arizona leaking oil is something I will never forget. It reminded me of the tears/death so many endured during a horrific time in our nations history with the sneak attack from the Empirical Forces of Japan.
