List of Medal of Honor recipients for the Attack on Pearl Harbor

The Medal of Honor is the highest military decoration presented by the United States government to a member of its armed forces. The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise military strike on the neutral United States by the Imperial Japanese Navy against numerous U.S. military sites on the island of Oahu – with a focus on the naval base at Pearl Harbor – in the U.S. Territory of Hawaii on the morning of December 7, 1941. The attack killed almost 2,500 people and devastated the U.S. naval fleet and airfields, leading to America's entry into World War II.
For their actions during the attack on Pearl Harbor, 15 sailors in the U.S. Navy (from seven ships and one Naval Air Station) were awarded the Medal of Honor. As noted below, a 16th Medal of Honor was awarded to a Marine for an encounter that day, at a Naval Air Station on Sand Island in the Hawaiian Islands, with units of the same Japanese attack fleet. The 16 recipients held a wide range of ranks, from seaman to rear admiral. Eleven (69%) received their awards posthumously.
