The United States was attacked by a foreign military on a Sunday morning on December 7, 1941. This was an act of war and over 2,000 sailors died that day. The president declared war on Japan and in turn Germany declared war on the United States. This brought the United States into the war that had all ready begun in 1939 when Hitler invaded Poland.
