Presentation transcript:

Pearl Harbor, Hawaii The major fleet base of the US navy in the Pacific. It was home to all the major US warships in the Pacific. Destruction of these ships would take out all the resistance to Japanese expansion to the East and South.

7 th December 1941-the ‘day of infamy’. The Japanese launch a surprise attack. The Japanese had been shown how to attack a harbor with planes by the British attack on the Italian fleet in Taranto The US navy had chosen to regard the feat as a ‘fluke’.

US warships sinking at anchor. Japanese carrier planes ready to take off.

The US fleet lies destroyed.

Unfortunately the Japanese destroyed battleships, but no US aircraft carriers. They also failed to either destroy or capture the harbor.

The USS Enterprise Only luck kept this ship out of Pearl Harbor on the 7 th. She arrived the following day. She was to lead the US Navy back into the fight in the Pacific.
