On this day the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service attacked the American naval base at Pearl Harbour in Hawaii just before 8:00 a.m. 353 Imperial Japanese aircraft carried out the attack which killed over 2000 Americans and destroyed more than 180 US aircraft and a number of battleships, as well as important facilities on Pearl Harbour. It shocked the American public and directly led them to declare war on Japan the following day. Adolf Hitler responded by declaring war on the USA on 11th December, bringing America into both fronts of the war. President Franklin D. Roosevelt referred to the attack as “a day which will live in infamy.”
