The USS Ward (DD-139) instigated the attack by firing on and sinking a Japanese submarine just outside of Pearl Harbor. The Japanese retaliated by attacking Pearl Harbor a couple of hours later.

Ah. I believe that was a midget submarine, part of the Pearl Harbor attack. To think the Japanese could organize a large calculated attack in retaliation is simply ridiculous.
