THE PACIFIC WAR
The Pacific War Historical Society presents an illustrated history of the Pacific War from Pearl Harbor to Guadalcanal Text and Web-site by James Bowen. Web-site established May 2002 and last updated 23 November 2009 MIDWAY - THE BATTLE THAT TURNED THE TIDE OF THE PACIFIC WAR "THE FAMOUS FOUR MINUTES" - by R.G. Smith * This painting depicts one of the defining moments of the Pacific War when the tide turned against the Japanese aggressors at America's Midway Islands. Lieutenant Richard Best and his two wingmen in their Douglas Dauntless SBD dive-bombers have just launched a successful attack on the Japanese flagship aircraft carrier _Akagi_. The crushing defeat inflicted on the Japanese Navy by the very much smaller United States Pacific Fleet at Midway put an end to Japan's ambition to dominate the central Pacific region, and removed the Japanese threat to Hawaii. ------------------------- INTRODUCTION AND DEDICATION TO THE PACIFIC WAR On 7 December 1941, the Japanese launched a devastating surprise attack on the United States Pacific Fleet at its Pearl Harbor base in Hawaii. The attack was not preceded by a declaration of war, and took place while Japanese diplomats were in Washington discussing American concerns about continuing Japanese military aggression in East Asia. These diplomatic discussions were intended by the Japanese to distract the attention of Americans while Japan secretly positioned a powerful aircraft carrier striking force off the Hawaiian islands. About nine hours later, the Japanese struck at American military forces in the Philippines. Despite that nine hour notice, the American army commander in the Philippines, General Douglas MacArthur, had failed to place his air force and troops on a war footing, and American air power in the Far East was destroyed by the Japanese on the ground. While the Japanese Imperial Navy was striking at Pearl Harbor, Japanese troops were invading British Malaya and being resisted by British, Australian and Indian forces. On 23 January 1942, Japanese troops landed at Rabaul in the Australian Territory of New Guinea and overwhelmed the heavily outnumbered Australian garrison. When Singapore fell to the Japanese on 15 February 1942, the British government was not prepared to assist Australia to resist a Japanese invasion, preferring instead to allocate all available British and Australian military resources to the defence of India. The British Government even resisted the return of Australian troops from the Middle East to defend their own country. Having been abandoned by Britain to a likely Japanese invasion, Australia turned to the United States for help, and it was generously given. Thereafter, the Americans and Australians fought together as allies to stem, and ultimately repel the Japanese military onslaught. This web-site is one of two linked web-sites that trace the history of Japanese military aggression in the Pacific War. At the Pacific War and Battle for Australia web-sites, the viewer is taken from Pearl Harbor to the great naval Battle of Midway that destroyed Japanese naval supremacy over the United States and marked the turning of the tide against Japan in the Pacific War. The viewer will then be taken to the Kokoda and Guadalcanal Campaigns that brought Japanese military aggression to a halt in the South-West Pacific, and forced Japan onthe defensive.
The Pacific War Web-site is dedicated to the courageous Americans and Australians who fought together to defeat the Japanese military onslaught that began at Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941 and ended at Tokyo Bay on 2 September 1945.
