"December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy..."


A day worth remembering and reflecting upon, the December 7, 1941 attack on the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii was the key that unlocked the door of American isolationism during World War II. The following day the United States declared war on Japan, marking its official entry into the war that changed the world.
