Answer #1

Technically by air. The Japanese navy sent aircraft to bomb our naval fleet and prevent us from joining the WWII. They destroyed 4 battleships, 3 cruisers, 3 destroyers, an anti-aircraft training ship, a minelayer, and 188 U.S. aircraft. Over 2,400 servicemen were killed and 1,282 were wounded. Whether or not they won is debatable. Yes, the attack was successful, but the goal was to stop us from getting in the way of their trying to fight a war in Southeast Asia. Instead, we joined the wars in Europe and the Pacific. And won.
