The island hopping strategy was employed by Allied forces during World War II to bypass heavily fortified Japanese positions and capture strategically important islands. By securing these key locations, such as Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima, the Allies could establish bases for air and naval operations, thereby cutting off Japanese supply lines and weakening their overall military presence. This approach allowed for more efficient use of resources and minimized casualties, ultimately leading to the successful offensive toward Japan’s home islands.
