At 7.55 AM, Sunday, 7 Dec, 1941, suddenly, at the port of Pearl Harbour, an American island, the sky was covered by war-fighter-jets and bombarded dramatically by Japanese, that left 2403 death,American altogether 188 were kept at Pearl Harbour, were completely destroyed. The sudden wars were launched two times, at 7.55 AM and 8.54 AM the same day.The devastation was called " Day of infamy" by recent president Franklin D. Rujbelt. Japan had prepared 423 jets in all and were used just 350 jets. At first attack at 7.55 AM, 183 jets were used and second attack, at 8.54 AM, were used 167 jets. Of them 29 jets couldn't return back. War ended at 9.45 AM on the same day. Britain and US had declared war against Japan at 8 Dec, 1941.
The reasons to attack this way by Japan may be to stop US while Japan was planing to attack to Nether land, east Asia, UK etc. Among reasons, to make US silent from future attacking to Japan is highly taken.
Pearl Harbour is far 4000 Miles from Japan, it took 11 days by ship in those days over Pacific Ocean. After war ended, while 6 Japanese ships were getting back with loaded fighter-jets were destroyed by US.
American government, punished two personnel, Edmiral Hobsband Kimbell, Pearl Harbour navy commander and General Wattler Sort, Pearl Harbour Chief General of Army accusing not taking enough security-alerts. They faced court-Marshall and didn't let chance to seek legal pursue against them.
