The main focus of the Pearl Harbour attack was the US navy's row of hunubgous battleships, resting off the coast of Ford Island within the harbour.

The ship that took the largest hit and suffered the greatest loss was USS Arizona, with 1,177 of the officers and crewmen on board being killed, over 900 of who's bodies were never recovered and still lie within the ships wreckage just beneath the surface today.
