Road Pearl Harbor
Relations between Japan and the United States had been deteriorating for decades prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor due to Japan's expansionist ambitions in Asia and the Pacific. The U.S. responded to Japan's invasion of China and Indochina with trade embargoes, including on oil, threatening Japan's war machine. On December 7, 1941, Japan launched a surprise attack on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii using aircraft carriers, severely damaging the American fleet and killing over 2,000 Americans. The attack drew the United States into World War II against Japan and its Axis allies.

The Battle of Midway in June 1942 was a major naval battle between the United States and Japanese naval forces where the US was able to defeat Japan and turn the tide of the war in the Pacific. The Japanese had intended to eliminate the US naval threat to enable setting up defensive positions, but flaws in their assumptions and intelligence gathered by US codebreakers allowed the US to prepare an ambush defeating the Japanese fleet and sinking four of their aircraft carriers at a cost of only one US carrier. This significant victory ended Japan's previous success in expanding its territory and put the US back on the offensive in the Pacific.
Pearl Harbor- Amanda Canda
The Japanese launched a surprise attack on the US naval base at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 in an attempt to cripple the US Pacific fleet and prevent American interference with Japanese plans to expand in Asia. In two waves of aerial bombing that lasted around two hours, Japan sank or damaged eight US battleships and over 180 aircraft, killing more than 2,400 Americans. The attack drew the US fully into World War 2 and ended its prior policy of isolationism.

Pearl Harbor
The document summarizes key events leading up to and during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. It discusses FDR's presidency and US isolationism. As tensions rose between the US and Japan over Japan's expansion in Asia, the US placed embargoes on scrap metal and oil sales to Japan. Despite hopes from Emperor Hirohito and others for a peaceful solution, Japan's military leaders planned a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor to neutralize the US Pacific fleet. The attack succeeded in damaging much of the fleet but failed to destroy critical assets like carriers and oil fields. It had the effect of drawing the US into World War 2 despite originally non-interventionist attitudes.

Pearl Harbour
Franklin Roosevelt was president of the US during WWII. While he prepared for war, the US maintained an isolationist policy due to events like WWI and the Great Depression. Japan wanted to conquer Asia and signed a pact with Germany. Tensions rose as the US cut off exports to Japan. On December 7, 1941, Japan launched a surprise attack on the US naval base at Pearl Harbor, destroying many ships and killing over 2,400 Americans. The attack brought the US into WWII but some damage could have been worse if more waves were sent. It cemented support for the war in the US.
Battle Of Midway
The Battle of Midway took place from June 4-7, 1942 in the Pacific Theater of World War 2. The Japanese aimed to draw out and destroy the remaining U.S. carriers to take control of Midway Atoll. However, U.S. codebreakers had cracked Japan's naval code and warned of their plan. In a major turning point, U.S. dive bombers surprised the Japanese fleet on June 4th, sinking four aircraft carriers in under 5 minutes. While the U.S. lost the carrier Yorktown, Japan suffered heavy losses that ended their offensive capabilities in the Pacific, shifting the war's momentum in favor of the Allies.

Light, 80, “continues to wear a uniform’’ to this day. His involvement with Veterans Alliance Inc., with headquarters in Dawsonville, has given him the opportunity to help with more than 1,000 military funerals and ceremonies since 2000. Born and raised in Forsyth County, Light continues to live in the area with his wife, Jacquline. They have two daughters, four grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
