2,388 Americans Killed

And another 1,178 were wounded on December 7, 1941 when the Japanese launched a sneak attack on America at Pearl Harbor. Many historians relate that to the start of WWII, where tens of thousands more lives were lost.
According to wikipedia, the Japanese casualties amounted to only 65.

That's "ONE" reason I don't have a Japanese car in my garage.
