Pearl Harbor



   The forgotten day of 1941. As president Roosevelt said it was a date which will live in infamy. The Japanese launched two air attacks on the harbor, as well as some areas around Ohao. Two important battleships were lost. Their names were Arizona and Oklahoma. The Arizona blew up due to an armored piercing shell that went into the forward powder magazine, ripping the ship in two. The Oklahoma was hit with several torpedoes and capsized or rolled over upside down.

The Arizona before world war two.

Now that you have seen the pictures, now you will see a video of the Arizona getting hit with an armored piercing shell that ripped through her strong hull...

For us this was our start for world war two. We succeeded and stopped the world wide threat.


  
These men did whatever they could to stop the threat and unite peace in Europe and Japan.
