Issues at Bataan By February, 1942, the Japanese took Singapore and Burma, and most of the islands in the Pacific. Bataan Death March Forced march in the Philippines that led to the death of American and Filipino Soldiers. Philippines fell to Japan and they controlled most of the Pacific Ocean

Doolittle Raid Doolittle Raid This was revenge for Pearl Harbor. 16 B-25 bombers sent from aircraft carriers to bomb Tokyo. Little damage, but it showed the United States that we COULD attack. Creates morale. Japanese call it the “do-nothing raid” to strengthen country.

Turning Points of the War Battle of the Coral Sea (mid-May 1942) Fought entirely by planes from aircraft carriers Midway Island U.S. had cracked Japanese codes and knew where Japanese ships would be Won decisive victory Army under General Douglas MacArthur Navy under Admiral Chester Nimitz “island- hopped” Fall 1944 Battles of the Philippine Sea and Leyte Gulf Navy finished off what remained of the Japanese fleet Iwo Jima in 1945 had some of the most fierce fighting in the Pacific War.

Japanese Internment The Internment of Japanese-Americans Internment/”relocation centers” 37,000 first-generation Japanese immigrants (Issei) 75,000 native-born Japanese Americans (Nisei) “Yellow Peril” to boost anti-Japanese sentiment Executive Order 9066 FDR issued it February 1942 Authorized the removal from military areas of anyone deemed a threat Korematsu v. U.S. (1944)

End of the War The Yalta Conference, February 1945 Potsdam Stalin, Would enter Pacific war after Germany’s surrender People claimed FDR “gave away” eastern Europe Potsdam Truman, Stalin, Churchill could not agree on the demilitarized Germany Major post-war military problems left to Council of Foreign Ministers to deal with later Hitler commits suicide April 25th, and Germany surrenders April 30, 1945, Victory Day in Europe!
