Attack on Pearl Harbor The “Gibraltar” of the Pacific (also known as) Pearl Harbor was the headquarters for the United States Pacific fleet from the years 1899-1941. This monumental place experienced one of the most devastating attacks in United States history which left them no choice but to join World War II. But, did they really have a choice?
