Went into war with Indians in 1761 as militia

Led great attack against big Indian spot

Pearl Harbor Attack

The Pearl Harbor Attack  was a shock to everyone,killing thousands of American soldiers and their family/loved ones.It happened on a day where we were all relaxing and sleeping in.They thought the planes incoming where the supply drops,but it was the Japanese planes coming in to bomb us on a December 7,1941.The Japanese submarines were a great hit too.They did more damage than the bomb did,and they brought us into  WWII.after the war was over we went to give Japan a present too,the only two nucular bombs in the world.
