Battle of Midway

The Battle That Shifted the Pacific War

The Battle of Midway, fought in June 1942, was a really important naval battle between the United States and Japan during World War II. It took place in the Pacific Ocean near Midway Atoll and is often considered a major turning point in the war. The United States Navy was led by Chester W. Nimitz, while Japan’s forces were commanded by Isoroku Yamamoto.
