It should be remembered that the Japanese changed their codes twice between April and June rather than the usual every six months. The Americans knew something big was up. Fragmented sentences and words were as good as they could do.

By 1942 Britain had turned on Australia and it wasn’t until 1943 that MacArthur had more American troops under his command than Australian. 1942 was a difficult year for the Allies, but with Australia handing out the first defeats to Japan on land, then the Americans managed the same In Guadalcanal, the end of Japan’s expansion had been reached.

[@HamishBanish]

Your data and thinking are way, way, off track and you should refresh your comment. Japan was on a fools errand from long before commencement of WW2 hostilities. Japan could NEVER sustain power, it was only a matter of time before defeat happened on home ground. On population alone, never mind natural resources including oil. The Japanese population in 1940 was "probably" 70m (home islands, mostly agrarian) British Empire 500m America 130m Britain 48m (home islands) Australia 7m

[@stanburk7392]

@@HamishBanish Canada 11m aside from the resources, factories that could not be touched and safe training grounds in North America. even though they had conquered the Philippines it still took military resources to occupy it. The ongoing war with China. Basically what Japan had done was quick advances without reserve forces. AN attempted sucker punch at pearl harbour that may have sunk some Battleships did nothing to any of the carriers.

A missão de Doolittle não causou muitos danos, tanto que os japoneses a chamavam de missão Do Nothing (faça nada) (Do Little significa faça pouco). Embora os japoneses tivessem ficado chocados, consideravam que o ataque foi fruto de erros pontuais, que não mais se repetiriam. Na Batalha do Mar de Coral houve outros fatores importantes. Até então, os navios tinham pouco armamento antiaéreo, normalmente na forma de metralhadoras. Porém, nessa altura, os navios em qualquer momento de manutenção, recebiam canhões de 40 e 20 mm e os canhões de 127 mm foram ajustados para ação antiaérea. Com isso, Grace conseguiu abater os aviões que atacaram sua força de cruzadores. O Shokaku foi danificado e o Zuikaku saiu ileso, mas ambos perderam tantos pilotos que não puderam participar da Batalha de Midway. Yamamoto pisou na bola um monte de vezes: comandou pessoalmente do Yamato, quando deveria ficar em terra, como Nimitz ficou. Nessa condição mantinha silêncio no rádio. A artilharia antiaérea japonesa deixava muito a desejar. Mesmo que os navios de Yamamoto estivessem junto dos porta-aviões, nada ajudariam. Um cordão de submarinos entre Peral Harbour e Midway deveria dar um aviso se avistassem algum porta-aviões saísse. Mas se posicionaram um dia depois... O hidroavião de longo alcance japonês poderia ser enviado para verificar se havia de navios em Pearl Harbour, mas ele tinha que se abastecer por submarinos e isso era feito na Abrollhos Francesa. Os americanos sabiam disse, mas em vez de tentar uma alternativa, simplesmente abandonaram o plano. Deu no que deu.

You do a great service by providing these documentaries but please stop blurring images. Perhaps if people see the horrors of war we will not love it so much.

So true to actually see the horror and inhumanity is like a punch to the face ,the younger generation do not understand the price so many paid for their freedom , it's easy to say this was a long time ago and it would never happen in our time. Show it so maybe they'll know those people believed it could never happen in their time either.

Am I the first person to notice that one of the planes shown dropping bombs on Japan (17:46) during the Doolittle Raid with two-engine B-25 bombers in 1942 is a four-engine B-29 (which did not enter service until 1944)?

[@ashleyobrien4937]

isn't it funny, Japan who had such strong strict codes throughout their lives and society, that very same way of life, with such things as "honor" and "pride" and "cowardice" etc. absolutely screwed themselves, they could see no utility in compassion and decency (for example in the way they treated prisoners) and when the western forces found out what they were up to, coupled with the ironically cunning, sneaky attack on Pearl, sealed their fate absolutely. Strange how they knew that to defeat America AND her allies they would have to land the knockout punch which they actually didn't do. Yet somehow they thought they had and continued to fight, if it weren't for the atomic bombs that made them surrender, the allies would probably have had to utterly demolish main land Japan....so, in a weird way, if it weren't for the genius of men like Einstein and all the others so well encapsulated by that old photo at the Solvay conference in 1927, Japan wouldn't be what it is today.

I think invading the Alaskan island was one of the dumbest of Japan's action in WWII. They were too isolated and far too north to be used effectively to attack the US from. They captured a couple from which they could launch no attacks and were not able to resupply them. All resources Japan committed to Alaska were lost and could have been better expended elsewhere.
