Don't forget that Singapore was also bombed by a raid lasting from approximately 04.00hrs to 05.00hrs on the 8th of December 1941 local time. As Singapore is 18 hours ahead of Hawaii, does the time difference mean that this was actually before Pearl Harbor was hit or is my maths wrong there?
I was interested, so I used the above to calculate it. Cheating the year, but the day/date works:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/f ... 1=236&ah=1So 4am on the 8th December in Singapore is 10am on the 7th December in Hawaii. The attack at Pearl Harbor began at 7.48 am Hawaiian Time, so earlier than the Singapore attack.
I think I've got that right!
