∙ 11y ago
Admiral Nimitz and General MacArthur agreed on a two-pronged offensive loosely based on the War Department's pre-war Plan Orange for war in the Western Pacific.
Nimitz' sailors and marines took the Central Pacific route, island hopping, bypassing enemy fortifications, establishing naval and air bases, luring the Japanese fleet into lopsided naval-air engagements heading for Taiwan to cut the maritime supplies to Japan.
MacArthur began in New Guinea and island hopped through the South Pacific toward the Philippines to which he had promised to return at the beginning of the war.
In the event, Nimitz opted for Iwo Jima over Taiwan. Both army and marine forces took part in the invasion of Okinawa where the tips of the pincers came together.
