thats a good example of a day that gets totally overshadowed, everyone naturually figures december 7 is the day it all got going.
It was because of "Pearl", that the U.S. declared war on Japan.
As Japan's ally, Germany had no choice but to declare war on the U.S., and Churchill got what he wanted,
America,
at war,
in Europe.
I read somewhere that Hitler was furious with Japan over the attack. Told them that they acted too soon and should have waited until Britain had fallen.
