It was a major victory for the Japanese Navy, which in less than two hours destroyed 188 American planes, damaged another 159, and sunk or seriously damaged 18 U.S. warships. The battleships <i>Arizona</i> and <i>Oklahoma</i> were sunk. The battleships <i>California, West Virginia</i> and <i>Tennessee</i> were badly damaged and would not rejoin the United States fleet for months. Over 2,400 American military personnel were killed and 1,178 were wounded. The Japanese lost 29 planes and pilots, five midget submarines and one large sub with their crews.</p><p> Here are 24 personal accounts of servicemen who survived the attack on Pearl Harbor.
