In a strange case of life after death, the resurrected guns of the USS Arizona fired at the end of the war.

It was the attack that changed the world, and on December 7, the 70th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, the place to listen and learn about it will be in New Orleans at The National WWII Museum’s International Conference on WWII.

In this clip, Fred Hollis describes how he learned about the attack on Pearl Harbor.

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.
