In the morning of December 7 , 1941 , two wave of Japanese plane loaded with gunslinger and bomb eliminate over 3,500 people , four battlewagon , two destroyers , and three cruisers . Here ’s the first “ tweet ” describing the attack .
The name of the place was Pearl Harbor . The ships were part of the US Navy ’s Pacific Fleet . The multitude , citizens of the United States of America . And this was the first notification , sent from the Hawaii naval forces base to the US Naval Air Station in Kodiak , Alaska . Today , I suppose that it would have looked more or less like this :
Air raid on Pearl Harbor . This is no drill . @JOINTCHIEFSOFSTAFF @CONGRESS @ROOSEVELT Please RT . # USNAVY # USAAF # USARMY # WAR
The attempt could have been oppose back : The first wave — which admit Nakajima submarine sandwich , Aichi honkytonk - submarine , and Mitsubishi Zero fighters — was detected by radar at 136 marine knot . Unfortunately for the victims — and perhaps luckily for the rest of the creation — the plane were mistaken for USAAF submarine sandwich arriving from the continent .
After the attack , the US Congress declare War to Japan at the asking of President Roosevelt , entering the clusterfuck we now know as World War II . It was a very deplorable solar day , but at least it assist Roosevelt to press the country into entering a warfare that was desperately needing the assistance of the United States against the most repugnant and vicious forces ever to wander the Earth .
