Roosevelt and the president who followed him, being Harry S. Truman who called the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

John Hartnett plays Danny Walker in the movie he is a USAAC pilot who was given the title First Lieutenant which at the end of the movie is changed to Captain. Likewise, Rafe McCawley is played by Ben Affleck, who is also a USAAC pilot who was once a First Lieutenant and later became a Captain in combat. Kate Beckinsale takes on the role of Lieutenant Evelyn Johnson, a field nurse at the Tripler Army Hosptial. The plot begins with Rafe and Danny being seen enlisted in World War II as First Lieutenants under the rule of Jimmy Doolittle played by Alec Baldwin. Rafe then meets Evelyn and they fall in love at first sight. After partying all night, Rafe informs Evelyn that he has joined another mission team and must leave to go fight. During the mission, Rafe is presumed dead after being shot over the English Channel. Evelyn and Danny then meet and mourn their former lover and best friend while falling in love themselves. During this period, the Japanese navy began planning its attack on Pearl Harbor shortly after the United States cut off its oil supplies. A day before the attack, Rafe returns after being held hostage by the French and the Nazis; only to discover that Danny and Evelyn had been having an affair. Less than twenty-four hours later, on December 7, the Japanese finally attacked Pearl Harbor, after many long nights of continental planning. Meanwhile the US Army planes were destroyed in the attack before they could reach the port and defend themselves. Both Rafe and Danny took to P-40 helicopters to help and protect their homeland. After exiting the helicopters, both Waalker and McCawley rescued USS Oklahoma but failed to rescue USS Arizona. Likewise, Evelyn was trying to save the millions of incoming soldiers and casualties and in the process lost Betty, a fellow nurse. The next day, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt revealed that the United States was officially in a state of war with Japan. Before leaving on a secret mission, Evelyn told Rafe that she is pregnant with Danny's child and that she loves him infinitely. Upon arrival, Danny and Rafe were both declared Captains for their bravery on the day of the attack and would spend the next few months training side by side. Later they would be.
