Early on December 7, 1941, citizens and servicemembers alike in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, faced terror as Japanese planes rained fire on the island in a stunning surprise attack. The assault quickly plunged the United States into a world-changing war. Each year, The National WWII Museum commemorates those who lost their lives on that fateful December day.

Following a moment of silence at 11:55 a.m. CST (7:55 a.m. HST) to mark the time of the attack, a brief ceremony will remember the more than 2,400 Americans lost and reflect on the significance of the day, 83 years later.

The ceremony is free and open to the public and will be livestreamed. For more information, contact Katie Caballero, Veteran & Military Engagement Specialist at katie.caballero@nationalww2museum.org.
