On Sunday, December 7, 1941 (at 7:53 a.m. local time and 2:23 a.m. Washington time), the Japanese air force attacked the American base of Pearl Harbor in the Hawaiian archipelago in the Pacific without a declaration of war. This attack was carried out by six Japanese aircraft carriers and more than 400 aircraft. It caused the death of 2,403 soldiers and civilians. A dozen American ships were sunk or damaged. Fortunately, on that day, the American aircraft carriers were maneuvering out of the harbor and several ships were able to get back to sea within a few months. The next day at noon, on 8 December 1941, President Roosevelt asked the US Congress to declare war on Japan. He signed the declaration the same day. On 11 December Germany and Italy went to the war against the United States. These events marked the end of the United States’ isolationist policy.
