Rainy Day in Pearl Harbour, Hawaii (May 2024)

Pearl Harbor is a lagoon harbor situated on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, west of Honolulu. Historically significant, it gained global attention following the surprise military attack by the Japanese Imperial Navy on December 7, 1941, which led to the United States' formal entry into World War II. The harbor, which houses a deep-water naval base, was originally used by the Hawaiian Kingdom and later the United States for various naval activities.
The attack on Pearl Harbor stands as a pivotal moment in American and world history, marking a shift in the global dynamics of the 20th century. Today, Pearl Harbor remains an active military base and is also a site of remembrance and education, commemorating the events of 1941 and honoring those who lost their lives.
