What did the us lose in World War 2?

Answer 1

Soon after Japan attacked pearl harbor, the Japanese captured numerous Islands in the pacific that were at that time US territories. These include Guam, The Philippines etc. and they weren't returned to US control until near the end of the war when the US pacific forces retook them. A few years after the war an independence movement in the Philippines (primarily brought on by the outcome of the war) caused the us to give up control of the islands, so you could say the us lost the Philippines as a result of ww2. In addition to that, the us lost tens of thousands of American lives and thousands of vehicles and aircraft on foreign battlefields.
