Pearl Harbor

Conclusion

The attack at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 would be a day that changed America’s history and a day that would live in infamy. The horrific attack is showcased throughout the entire exhibition with displays of images, a video, and posters of propaganda. The Manitowoc Herald-Times showed what every newspaper looked like worldwide once news from Pearl Harbor was received. With it being an extra edition and having a bold headline “JAPS WAR ON U.S.” it talked about the Japanese bombing the entire U.S. Pacific Fleet and the casualties. “Now It Can Be Shown” gave a inside look of what the attack looked like on December 7 and the devastation that followed, including a footage of the gruesome explosion of the USS Arizona. Propaganda followed after the event at Pearl Harbor. The posters “News of Pearl Harbor” and “Avenge December 7” illustrated the bombing. Not only did they illustrated the bombing, but the posters showed how Pearl Harbor soon after affect Japanese Americans and that we should be reminded of the lives that were lost and that America is determined to fight the Japanese for revenge. Pearl Harbor is one of the biggest surprise attacks in U.S. history and if the Japanese never attack the U.S. Pacific Fleet, America’s history would have been a lot different and the United States could have not enter into World War II.
