The World Wars, Episode 8: Midway

About this episode

Imperial Japan had an incredible undefeated streak that went a half of a year after their attack on Pearl Harbor. The US, the UK, Australia, the Netherlands, and the other Allies were unable to stop Japan as they spread their Empire over many islands and peninsulas all over the Pacific Ocean and coastal Asia. But Imperial Japan met their match when they went toe-to-toe with the US Navy at the tiny island of Midway. Though WWII in the Pacific would drag on for three more long years, the Battle of Midway proved to be the turning point in the Pacific.
