Pearl Harbor movie

Pearl Harbor follows the story of two best friends, Rafe and Danny, and their love lives as they go off to join the war.

Pearl Harbor is a simple harbor on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, west of Honolulu. Much of the harbor and surrounding lands is a United States Navy deep water naval base: headquarters of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. The attack on Pearl Harbor by Japan on December 7, 1941 brought the United States into World War II.

History 1800-1941 Pearl Harbor was originally an extensive, shallow embayment called Wai Momi (meaning "water of pearl") or Puuloa by the Hawaiians. Puuloa was regarded as the home of the shark goddess Kaahupahau and her brother, Kahiuka. The harbor was teeming with pearl-producing oysters until the late 1800s.In the years following the arrival of Captain James Cook, Pearl Harbor was not considered a suitable port due to shallow water. The interest of the United States Government in the Sandwich Islands followed the adventurous voyages of its whaling and trading ships in the Pacific. As early as 1820, an "Agent of the United States for Commerce and Seamen" was appointed to look after American business in the Port of Honolulu. With the cementing of commercial ties with the American continent, another factor to be considered was the endeavors of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions.
