Who controlled the US Army in the pacific World War 2?
General Douglas McCarthur
Where was the World War 2 for the Army mainly fought?
It depends on which country's army you're referring to. I'm going to assume you mean the US Army. The US Army initially fought in North Africa. Once the Axis were driven out of Africa, the Army contributed towards the invasion of Sicily and then Italy. While they were still fighting in Italy, another significant portion of the US Army participated in the Normandy Invasion and subsequent liberation of France and the Low Countries, and the invasion of Germany at the end of the war. The Army didn't participate as much in the Pacific War- for the Americans, the Pacific war was mainly fought by the Navy and Marine Corps. Not that the Army was entirely absent- they were certainly there (for example, the overall commander was General MacArthur, who served in the Army; also, the US Air Force was technically part of the US Army until after the war), just not in the same massive numbers that saw combat in Europe and North Africa.
