On December 7, 1941, Japan waged a surprise attack on the United
States Naval Base at Pearl Harbor. It was a major victory for the
Japanese Navy, which in less than two hours destroyed 188 American
planes, damaged another 159, and sunk or seriously damaged 18 U.S.
warships. The battleships Arizona and Oklahoma were sunk. The
battleships California, West Virginia and Tennessee were badly
damaged and would not rejoin the United States fleet for months.
Over 2,400 American military personnel were killed and 1,178 were
wounded. The Japanese lost 29 planes and pilots, five midget
submarines and one large sub with their crews. Here are 24 personal
accounts of servicemen who survived the attack on Pearl Harbor.
These accounts cover in detail the location of each man and his
experience during and after the actual attack. Also included is
general information about Pearl Harbor.
