Shattered Sword: The Battle of Midway
Program Description
Event Details
The Battle of Midway (June 3–6, 1942) was fought almost entirely with aircraft, in which the United States destroyed Japan's first-line carrier strength and most of its best trained naval pilots.
The Japanese naval genius, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, prepared for this catastrophic confrontation in the Pacific. What went wrong in the Japanese planning and execution of the battle? How was the sword of the mighty Japanese fleet shattered? This is a most engaging presentation for anyone interested in American naval history.
