Ending the Fight in the Pacific War in Europe ends after the Battle of the Bulge (Dec. 1944) Battle of Midway and Guadalcanal had tipped favor to Allies Land invasion of Japan is planned, but first Allies must get Iwo Jima and Okinawa

Iwo Jima and Okinawa Americans take Iwo Jima in March 1945 Month of heavy fighting American troops move into Okinawa April 1945 Japanese fight aggressively Bloodiest land battle of WWII Japan loses 110K troops US loses 12.5K troops

The Atomic Bomb Next target is Japan Truman faced with decision to use the A-bomb He warns Japanese – expect a “rain of ruin from the air” if they don’t surrender No reply… Atomic Bomb Facts Developed by J.

WWII Legacy More death and destruction than any war before it 60 million civilians and soldiers dead 11 million dead from the Holocaust Europe in ruins Millions are displaced Misery doesn’t end when the war does
