Which of the following is NOT associated with the attack on Pearl Harbor?

A. The sinking of US warships, including the USS Arizona

B. a declaration of war against Japan

C. the capture of many US soldiers by Japanese forces

C) The capture of many US soldiers by Japanese forces

Explanation:

The only thing that was not directly associated with the Pearl Harbor attack is the capture of the US soldiers, as none were captured by the Japanese army during the attack itself.

Before the attack on Pearl Harbor, the US was trying to stay mostly neutral in World War II, not involved with the war too much, though being on the allies' side. However, after the attack, it declared the war against Japan as a direct consequence of the attack.

The warship USS Arizona was the one that sank during the attack after it was attacked by torpedo bombers. There were over a thousand people who died, parts of the crew and the officers. The wreck is still on the Pearl Harbor site and today serves as the memorial for all those who died that day during the attack.
