Racing the Rising Sun: War Preparations in the Year Before the Pearl Harbor Attack

Join us on Friday, February 7th, for our first webinar of 2025! This virtual event will be held at a NEW time, starting at 6:oopm HST.

The months leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor were marked by a divided focus for the United States: an unwavering commitment to avoid another European war alongside an equally resolute determination to defend America. With attention largely fixed on the Nazi regime in Europe, U.S. military leaders prepared for the looming threats of war with Nazi Germany while bracing for a potential Pacific conflict with Japan. These efforts set the stage for one of the most pivotal moments in global history.

Join us as we discuss the United States’ urgent military preparations and the critical events of 1940 and 1941 that reshaped the world. This insightful webinar will feature our Museum’s Lead Docent Alex Schellenberg and moderator Lt. Col. William “Spin” Spincola, USAF (Ret.), the Museum’s Senior Manager of Education, as they explore the intricate challenges and decisions that defined this era.
