Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.This day commemoriates the Sunday morning December 7, 1941 attack of the Pearl Harbor Naval Station by the Imperial Japanese Navy. The Japanese had been attacking everyone around them in the name of domination but this particular transgression of peacetime decorum became their downfall.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
