Midway was a battle between the U.S. Navy and the Imperial Japanese Navy.It resulted in a devastating defeat for the Japanese as they lost 4 aircraft carriers in this one battle. These carriers were the Akagi,Hiryu,Kaga,and Soryu. Although there remained much bloody fighting in the Pacific after this battle the Japanese Navy never fully recovered from this loss.
Very much so. The Island of Midway is a small atoll a little over 2 square miles that is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, 1,500 miles NW of Hawaii. That was the only piece of land in the entire battle and the Japanese never set foot on it. The battle was considered the most decisive battle of WWII in the Pacific as it effectively wiped out the Japanese carrier fleet (4 carriers sunk) and their best pilots and turned the war into the Allies favor. The losses were irreplaceable to the Japanese because of their limited resources and shipyards and very long training programs for pilots.
It’s midway!!!! For APEX

Probably the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise; the only survivor out of the three sisters, USS Yorktown (sunk at the Battle of Midway), USS Hornet (sunk at the Battle of Santa Cruz). Much to the heartbreak of most US Sailors of WW2, she was scrapped (re-cycled) in 1959.

569 tons of ammunition was used in the Battle of Gettysburg. Thats 1,138 pounds.

I would suggest that the turning point was at the Battle of Midway, when America destroyed much of the Japanese naval power.

From the Japanese side, the major goals were: (1) draw out the remaining U.S. Fleet carriers and destroy them (2) capture the island of Midway for use as a staging base for attacks against the Hawaiian Islands From the American side, the major goals were: (1) Prevent the capture of Midway (2) Inflict as much damage as possible on the Japanese fleet, while limiting damage to the American fleet
After the Battle of Midway not really unless the Japanese could make the price of victory (in terms of casualties) too much for the U.S. to bear. They failed to do that despite desparate attempts.
ammunition cost roughly $30.00 which is $65.00 in present day AmericaI am just kidding because I really don't know what ammunition is. Look it up on the internet!
