December 7th, 1941, it was a Sunday morning, about 8:00 AM local time and most of the US military were on pass. The Japanese never declared war before the attack, so no serious precautions had been taken. The attack was conducted in 3 waves by 5 attack groups from 5 aircraft carriers, and lasted about 2 hours. 21 American warships were sunk or damaged, including 8 Battleships. No US Aircraft Carriers were present at the time of the attack.

Japan had giving no warnings about going to war there for no serious precaution measures were taking
the biggest ship lost was the USS Arizona , a japanese bomb had penetrated the first layer of armour on the ship but the bomb landed right next to gun turret ammunition and you know the rest from there...
