The fact that the USA designated only 20% of war material to the Pacific and the men accomplished so much is a tribute to them and also the might of USA industry.
The 20% figure was a goal but the actual figure was clearly much higher. Most sources say 35% or more was actually expended.

very detailed narration....it would be even better if you could intersperse maps of the pacific so we could see the various island locations you reference throughout this video.
Agreed
Me too
Each of the WW2 Tales are very well done. The writing is detailed and thorough. The narration is pleasant to listen to. This series is remarkable for its straightforward presentation. I don’t need drama. I don’t know the group/organization that produced this series. All of the work done is worth it.
All these years I had bought into the hype that Halsey was this magnificent strategist, but, according to the narrator, he was a typical Naval officer who was mired down in the "olden days" of Naval tradition and not the forward, flexible strategic Commander I always thought he was. And another misconception was that he wasn't ego driven. Even MacArthur was open-minded enough to accept motorized vehicles over horse and carriage AND the inclusion and tactical advantage of armored vehicles (tanks).
Fascinating…
Thank you
Brilliant!
Turning point was dec 7 in 1941
Interesting how the view of naval aviation has now completely flipped.
Big guns on big boats was a winning strategy for centuries then new tech changed things so fast even the people involved couldn't see it
Very detailed and back-ground Thank you for to much
More maps!
This LECTURE would be more interesting if an effort had been put forth to develope charts/MAPS showing objective areas, towns and movable arrows depicting ship/troop movement with accompanying flags to show Japanese movement(s) and Allied Country's movement(s).
Somebody's family was invoived in the SOuth Pacific but not Midway and they are salty about it.
👌👌👌👌👌❤❤❤
😮
Halsey was the navel leader who didnt sit on his super charger and complain. Japan was not use to man who was a winner above all else. Men fight for such leaders.
I believe Halsey was a NAVAL leader.
His ass was a super charger, too 😊
Frank Jack Fletcher commanded the US forces at Midway.
Fletcher was to have overall command when Yorktown met up with Spruance, who held command over the Enterprise and Hornet. After the loss of the Yorktown, Fletcher gave Spruance complete leeway over the disposition of the vessels under his command.
NARRATOR, you sre discussing the US NAVY. Tarawa was pronounced by US military as Tar a wa and Lieutenants are pronounced NOT AS LEF ten ant but as LEW ten ant.
It's AI. There are always going to be discrepencies.
