Flags around Washington will be flown at half-staff Sunday in remembrance of the attacks on Pearl Harbor, the office of Gov. Chris Gregoire announced.

The Japanese attacks on the Hawaiian Naval base on Dec. 7, 1941 killed more than 2,300 Americans and sparked the Unites States’ involvement in World War II.

Congress created National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day in 1994.
