Island hopping!

The U.S. strategy in the Pacific during World War II was called "Island Hopping." This approach involved capturing strategically important islands while bypassing others, allowing U.S. forces to establish bases and secure supply lines closer to Japan. The strategy aimed to weaken Japanese defenses and ultimately bring the war to a conclusion by targeting key locations for invasion and airstrikes.
Island hopping, also called leapfrogging, was an important military strategy in the Pacific Theater of World War II. The strategy was to bypass heavily fortified Japanese positions and instead concentrate the limited Allied resources on strategically important islands that were not well defended but capable of supporting the drive to the main islands of Japan

Yes ANSWER No. It is in the Pacific Ocean or what is called "the Pacific rim".
General Douglas MacArthur's plan for the Pacific Islands during World War II was primarily focused on a strategy called "island hopping." This involved bypassing heavily fortified Japanese positions and capturing strategically important islands to establish bases for air and naval operations. By doing so, MacArthur aimed to cut off Japanese supply lines and gradually move closer to Japan itself, ultimately leading to the liberation of the Philippines and facilitating an eventual invasion of Japan. This strategy was instrumental in shifting the balance of power in the Pacific theater.

Douglas MacArthur was relieved of his command during the Korean War on April 11, 1951, by President Harry S. Truman due to disagreements over military strategy. MacArthur was subsequently called back to the United States, where he addressed a joint session of Congress on April 19, 1951, defending his actions and expressing his views on the war. His relief marked a significant moment in U.S. military and political history, highlighting tensions between military leaders and civilian authority.
Malaysia is called the Tiger of the Pacific.
The strategy developed before the war was called Naval Plan Orange. It called for an island hopping campaign across the Central Pacific, culminating at Taiwan, choking off Japan from its natural resources. In the event, a second thrust from the South Pacific culminated in the Philippines, and the Central Pacific thrust ended at Okinawa, to gather for an invasion of mainland Japan.
In early December of 1942, General Douglas MacArthur asked Lieutenant General Walter Kruger, to leave the Third Army to take command of a new army under MacArthur, called the Sixth Army. This was in the Pacific Theater and Krueger accepted the offer. Lieutenant General was then appointed to fill the vacancy created by this situation, and took over as commander of the Third Army in 1943.
