Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Five myths about
Pearl Harbor
63 years ago today
was the day of Pearl Harbor attack. While Japanese remember the eighth of
December, 1941 was the day of the attack, it was the seventh for Americans and
the international community because of the International Date Line which lies
just in the west of Hawaii.
Though neither the
US base nor the fleet seemed to have prepared for the attack, it has been popular
myth, like the assassination of JFK, whether the US had predicted the attack or
detected the move of the Japanese Imperial fleet.
Also, other significant
surprise offensive moves were taken place on the day and on by Japanese army
and navy in Southeast Asia, including the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand and
other islands.
Enjoy reading and
learning what happened on the historic day.
