Pearl Harbor was one of the biggest sea and air battles in history. For many years, it’s been said that the Japanese soldiers attacked first and that they were guilty of the fatalities. However, many historians have doubts about this and believe instead that the American soldiers overreacted against a simple exploration mission, provoking the Japanese troops to attack. With the help of experts and pictures taken during battle, UNSOLVED HISTORY: MYTHS OF PEARL HARBOR will try to determine what really happened that day.
