Battlefield expert Robert Mueller reviews the why and how the Japanese almost wiped out the American Pacific Fleet on December 7, 1941 in one fell swoop.
It was a day that would live in infamy forever more - December 7, 1941. It was a day that our parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles would never forget. That morning Japanese warplanes appeared over the Hawaiian Islands to launch a surprise aerial bombardment of American air and naval installations. It was the event that propelled the United States into the Second World War. Using individual stories of the men who responded to the attack, Mr. Mueller presents the tactics and the consequences of the most treacherous assault ever launched upon American soil. The program ends with a review of the surviving relics and, appropriately, a visit to National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific.
