Ok, some Pearl Harbor trivia:
Who was it that shot down the first Japanese aircraft during the initial attack on 7 December 41, making it the first Japanese aircraft downed by an American during WWII?

You can get this answer right by either with the serviceman's name, or thier machine.

Holy hell guys, sorry about dropping the ball on this one!!

In a delayed response, no one got the answer...the first Japanese aircraft downed by Americans during WWII (Pearl Harbor in specific) was by Pasqual Mignon, a torpedoman, stationed aboard the USS Tautog (SS199) manning the aft .50 MG emplacement.

So technically speaking, the Japanese aircraft was downed by a submarine!
