The Battle of Midway, where Japan lost four aircraft carriers.

The Battle of Midway, fought on June 4, 1942. The US Navy sprang a trap on the Japanese, and destroyed four aircraft carriers for the loss of one. The outcome of this battle stunned the Japanese, and permitted the US to launch a counteroffensive. The ensuing Battle of Guadalcanal finally turned the tide of the Pacific War, and gave the US the initiative.

(As this question is in the WW2 category, this answer is specific to WW2 combatants)

"fleet admiral" can refer either to a role, or a rank.

As a rank, "fleet admiral" was formally known as "Admiral of the Fleet" in the Royal Navy, Soviet Navy, "Großadmiral" in the Nazi Kreigsmarine, "Fleet Admiral" in the US Navy, and Marshal-Admiral (Gensui) in the Imperial Japanese Navy.

In all cases, it was the highest naval rank in each country. Most countries seldom had more than one or two persons serving at that rank at one time. The exception was the US Navy, which had 4 serving Fleet Admirals by the end of WW2. The duties of someone filling the rank of Fleet Admiral generally would be considered Logistical and Grand Strategy - that is, they were almost exclusively shore-bound commanding vast collections of fleets of ships in far-flung campaigns, or heavily involved in naval production and procurement.

As a functional role, "fleet admiral" generally refers to the commanding admiral of a specific fleet. It can refer to a variety of ranks of admiral, but, was generally not applied to anyone not at least of admiral rank; those of less than admiral rank who commanded collections of ships were usually afforded the title "commodore". If there were several admiral-ranked personnel in a fleet, "fleet admiral" would be the moniker applied to the one in command (usually the most senior, but not necessarily, depending on circumstances).

The role of fleet admiral is a tactical command - it involves directing the operations of the fleet, according to the grand strategy directed by the naval command authority. A fleet admiral would have wide latitude of both action and authority to accomplish their assigned mission(s). Their command usually included not just naval vessels, but transport vessels, naval bases, marines, and sometime even non-Navy assets in the area of operation.

The old Navy rating MoMM3c stands for "Motor Machinist's Mate, 3rd Class Petty Officer" - the rating was changed after WWII to just Machinist's Mate, and now encompasses many engineering/machinery jobs, from Nuclear Propulsion to Weapons (e.g., the old Torpedoman's rating was merged to MM).

Although the Japanese were the first to start the war in Asia on July 7, 1937 with their invasion of China, historians generally agree that September 1, 1939 was the start of the Second World War when Germany attacked Poland.

HMAS Canberra was one of four Allied cruisers sunk in the early morning hours of August 9, 1942 in the Battle of Savo Island off Guadalcanal. Although the ship survived the initial battle, the damage received was too great and the ship was scuttled by a torpedo from an American destroyer around 8 AM on the morning of the 9th. Canberra suffered 193 casualties in the battle, including 84 killed or missing in action.

In August 1943, following the failure of the Danes to surrender the Danish Navy to Germany, 31 ships were scuttled by their own Danish crews.

$20-$30 if it's in perfect condition. The medals aren't worth much because the US government awarded them to ANYONE who had served ONE or more days of service between 1941-46. That's millions of them.
