The island-hopping strategy was a military campaign used by the Allies during World War II to capture strategically important islands in the Pacific while bypassing others. This approach allowed forces to establish bases and supply lines closer to Japan, effectively isolating and weakening Japanese strongholds. The strategy involved amphibious assaults, securing airfields, and using these positions to launch further attacks, ultimately leading to Japan's defeat. By focusing on key islands, the Allies minimized resource expenditure and accelerated their advance toward Japan.

The U.S. used the strategy of island hopping during World War II to bypass heavily fortified Japanese positions in the Pacific and capture strategically important islands. This approach allowed American forces to establish bases closer to Japan, facilitating air and naval operations while conserving resources. By selectively targeting weaker islands, the U.S. aimed to cut off Japanese supply lines and diminish their capacity to wage war. Ultimately, this strategy contributed to the Allies' success in the Pacific theater.

I assume it is WW2 you are talking about. 'Island hopping' was the tactic the US used. They took over Japanese islands in the Pacific one by one setting up bases on each of them.
