What was the conclusion of the Battle of Midway?
The American victory at the Battle of Midway Island was the beginning of the end of Japanese aggression in the Second World War. With the United States in control of Midway, the Japanese had no chance of attacking the Hawaiin Islands and, therefore, no chance of attacking America's west coast. From this point on, Japanese forces in the Pacific receeded and were eventually forced to defend the home islands; after three more years of fighting, the Japanese surrendered unconditionally in August 1945.
What events led to the Battle of Midway?
Following the inconclusive Battle of the Coral Sea (May, 1942) Japan realized that the US carriers (while outnumbered) represented a threat to their continued landing operations. They sought to engage the US carriers in a decisive battle and establish a forward position on Midway Island.Unfortunately, things went wrong. Of the three Japanese carriers that fought at Coral Sea, one was lost and the other two needed repairs. That left 4 carriers to attack Midway. Also, the US had broken the Japanese Naval Code and knew where the fleet was going to be. A combination of skillful planning and fortuitous occurrences led to the destruction of all four Japanese carriers, while the US lost only the Yorktown.
