It had drastic losses for American people, supplies, and ships. It was what they expected attacking Japan (the main island) would be like.
Like all Islands in the Pacific, it is tropical. Rain and lots of sun. Hot and Humid in the summer. I have been through several Typhoon's on the Island. However it is a beautiful Island.
Midway was a "Sea Battle."
Okinawa is a small island that is north of Taiwan and is part of the Ryukyu Islands, which is part of Japan. The US. used to own Okinawa after WWII but gave it back to Japan. Okinawa is a great tourist site with many beautiful beaches and many tropical plants and animals. Okinawa has many tropical fish living near it so snorkeling and scuba diving to see some of Okinawa's greatest reefs is very popular. Probably the most famous thing on Okinawa is the Cheri ,Aquarium. The aquarium holds many local fish and has whale sharks. Whale sharks are like giant sharks but they eat plankton instead of people and fish. It rains a lot in Okinawa to maintain its tropical forests. It can get very cold in the winter but NOTHING compared to Alaska and New York. Okinawa is very hot in the summer, so many go to one of the many gorgeous resorts on Okinawa. I hope you will visit Okinawa you Will never regret it!
The only guns used at Midway were anti-aircraft guns and guns from torpedo bombers, dive bombers, and fighter planes. Midway, like the Battle of Coral Sea before it, were strictly "naval AIR battles."
I am sorry to inform you that the Japanese DID try to kill Americans on purpose. Places like Pearl Harbor, Bataan, Coral Sea, Midway, Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Peleliu, New Guinea, Guam, Saipan, Tinian, Leyte, Luzon, Iwo Jima, & Okinawa. Richard V. Horrell WW 2 Connections.com

If you mean before the United States was involved, it would have been china, followed by US territory's like Guam, Midway, Guadalcanal, and Okinawa.

The Allied powers fought the Japanese in the Pacific Theater of World War II. This theater included numerous naval and amphibious operations across the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, as well as intense land battles fought on islands like Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and Guadalcanal. The goal was to push back Japanese forces and ultimately bring the war to their doorstep.

First, when those Island were invaded, the nuclear bomb was not ready yet. Second, it took a place in the main island for the bomb to be taken seriously.
You, my friend, are an idiot. It's all in the name. U.S. troops take one island and move to the next, Just because I put the names in that order does NOT mean that's the way they did it. Okinawa->Peleliu->Iwo Jima. and continues like that.

No, Okinawa does not observe daylight savings time like the United States does.
