Description
On the 7th of December, 1941, hundreds of Japanese aircraft launched a devastating surprise attack on America’s Pacific fleet at Pearl Harbor. The assault resulted in thousands of American deaths and massive losses to the U.S Pacific fleet, paralyzing their forces in the region for months to come. But it wasn’t the complete knockout blow that the Japanese had hoped for, and ended up waking the sleeping giant of America from its slumber, and dooming Imperial japan to ultimate defeat. So why did they do it? And how did Japanese miscalculations on that day, seal their fate in World War 2 (WW2)?
