The surprise strike by the Imperial Japanese Navy against the American naval base of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Intended to be a decisive blow that would cripple the American Pacific Fleet in anticipation of war with the United States, the strike left over 2,400 Americans dead and several capital ships, notably four American battleships, sunk. However, the absence of American aircraft carriers from port on the day of the attack left the fleet in better overall shape afterwards than Japanese planners had hoped.
The brutal struggle for control over the Solomon island of Guadalcanal in the South Pacific during World War II. With its key location threatening access to Australia, the island became the site of a prolonged campaign between Japanese and American / ANZAC forces on land, at sea, and in the air.
The fierce campaign by the United States to seize control of the island of Iwo Jima from Japanese forces in order to secure a launching platform for continued bombing raids against the Japanese home islands.
