At exactly 7:55 a.m., the quiet Hawaiian morning shattered as Japanese planes dived toward their targets. Bombs whistled through the air, and torpedoes sliced the water. Pearl Harbor had gone from paradise to a battlefield in seconds. The USS Arizona took a direct hit when an armor-piercing bomb ignited its ammunition magazine. A massive explosion split the ship in half, sending smoke and fire towering into the sky. On the USS Oklahoma, sailors scrambled to escape as the ship began to roll over, trapping hundreds inside. Across the harbor, the USS West Virginia and others were hammered with bombs. The calm Sunday morning had turned into complete chaos and terror. Sailors grabbed rifles, scrambled to man anti-aircraft guns, and even threw potatoes at enemy planes when ammunition ran out, yes, really! Nurses rushed to treat the wounded, dragging men out of burning oil-filled waters. Civilians ran for cover as bullets rained down. Above it all, Japanese pilots radioed their victory call: ""Tora! Tora! Tora!"" The phrase did not mean ""tiger,"" it was code for ""We got total surprise."" And they were right. In less than two hours, the U.S. Pacific Fleet was wrecked, and thousands were dead or wounded. The Japanese achieved total surprise, crippling the U.S. Pacific Fleet and damaging or sinking more than 18 ships. Ready to Start Learning Without Yawning? And that's not all!
