The Pearl

Pearl Harbor was a truly fun and educational movie. This movie is of course based upon the events that happened at the Pearl Harbor Naval base on the morning of December 7, 1941, which includes both the time before the strike, and the events that followed. This movie takes place in Hawaii on the deck of a nuclear aircraft carrier. Throughout the movie, the main focus was to portray American patriotism. I believe they did a great job in doing this. The major characters in this movie are: Ben…

Toward the end of the attack at Pearl Harbor, Admiral IsorokuYamamoto, on the Combined Fleet flagship, rose to his feet and said, “I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.” Ironically, at the dawn of the World War II, of September 1, 1939, only a little more than two years prior, the United States did not have the security or the military alliances to engage in this full scale global struggle, World War II. Indeed, the predominant political…

Pearl Harbor is a harbour located on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. Today It is a United States Navy deep-water naval base, and also the headquarters of the United States Pacific fleet. Pearl Harbor was attacked on 7 December 1941, by Japanese fighter planes. This was a huge surprise. Japan is 4,000 miles away from Hawaii , so the Americans thought that Japan were going to attack a European colonie. But instead, their goal was to take down the the Pacific Fleet so the Americans would not be able to…

Ever think things are going well and something bad happens. When Pearl Harbor was bombed in 1941 by Japan, nobody expected it. . Thousands were killed along with many planes and ships that were destroyed. This was an act of war and we struck back.

Men were going along with their routine days aboard their ships until…

December 7, 1941, was a very important day. The attack on Pearl Harbor lead to the death of thousands, and pulled the United States into World War II. Why was that location so significant? Did other naval forces play a big role in the war? Pearl Harbor was a very noteworthy event, and other warships also had a major impact on society during World War II. Why are boats interesting to me? I have been boating for as long as I can remember. Kayaking was and still is something that brings my family…

Pearl Harbor, United States naval base in Hawaii, was attacked by Imperial Japanese Navy on 7th December 1941, what was tantamount to Japan declaring war on US. There is surely variety of possible reasons for this action and it is a topic of debate among historians. Firstly, after Japan seized Indo-China, United States decided to impose economic embargo on Japan. This would certainly prove disastrous to Japan as they would not be able to sustain war with China. On that account, after failed…

Another important cause for the disastrous attack on Pearl by the Japanese was that President Roosevelt furthered its “Moral Embargo” by expanding its restrictions to oil and scrap metal to stop Japan from expanding. At the beginning of 1900’s Japan was falling apart as they were running out of raw materials and oil. Japan decided that to survive they had to expand within Asia to get more materials so they invaded French Indochina in 1940 to embargo all imports to China which included war…
