National Geographic – The Battle for Midway: The Discovery of the U.S.S. YorktownDirected by Brian Breger and Peter Schnall for National Geographic. 2001. 82 Minutes. ASIN: 0792299914Review by Devin PooreThe Battle for Midway documents the 1998 expedition by National Geographic, headed by Dr. Robert Ballard, to find the aircraft carriers lost during the June 1942 Battle of Midway. The structure of this film is familiar to anyone who has seen other documentaries on shipwreck archeology: scenes of the modern-day expedition are interspersed with historical footage of WWII combat, alternating between the two, until the shipwreck is finally discovered in the last part of the film.The Battle for Midway differs from most other films of this sort in that veterans of the battle come along for the expedition, most notably Bill Surgi, who served on board USS Yorktown during the battle. Two Japanese veterans and a member of the USS Hornet TBF torpedo plane detachment that operated from Midway are also present. There are also several interview segments with Lloyd Childers, a crewman with torpedo squadron VT-3.Key moments in the documentary are when Ballard and crew fail to find the Japanese carrier Kaga. The disappointment weighs heavy in an interview with Ballard when he realizes the carrier won’t be found during the trip, and even though the Japanese veterans are very gracious and say they know Ballard will “find her someday”, their disappointment is obvious and touching.The moment when Yorktown is found still sends a tingle up my spine, and I’ve seen this video dozens of times. For a ship that’s been on the bottom of the ocean for over 50 years at the time of the filming, Yorktown is in remarkable shape. Deeper than any other shipwreck previously found — three miles down — there’s very little marine life to disturb her. Close-up shots of the flight deck, bridge, forward 20mm gun tub, and other areas show the ship much as she appeared when she sank in 1942. When veteran Bill Surgi’s sees his old battle station on the flight deck, looking much like it did the last time he By MARK THIESSEN, The Associated PressFootage from deep in the Pacific Ocean has given the first detailed look at three World War II aircraft carriers that sank in the pivotal Battle of Midway and could help solve mysteries about the days-long barrage that marked a shift in control of the Pacific theater from Japanese to U.S. forces.Remote submersibles operating 3 miles below the surface conducted extensive archeological surveys in September of the Akagi and the Kaga, two of the four Imperial Japanese Navy aircraft carriers destroyed during the June 1942 battle, as well as the U.S.S. Yorktown.The high-quality video includes the official identification of the Akagi, while also providing new clues about the final hours of the aircraft carriers.The footage shows how the island, or the tall structure that rose above the Yorktown’s wooden deck, was damaged by extremely high heat and how the crew went to great lengths to keep the American ship from sinking.Julian Hodges, one of the last living veterans who served on the Yorktown, and who swam six hours with a dislocated shoulder to a rescue ship, teared up as he watched.This photo provided by Debbie Hodges shows Julian Hodges at his home in Johnson City, Tenn., Dec. 25, 2021. Hodges is believed to be one of the last two men alive of the 4,600 servicemen who between 1937 and 1942 served aboard the USS Yorktown, an aircraft carrier sunk by a Japanese submarine following the June 1942 Battle of Midway. (Courtesy of Debbie Hodges via AP)AP“Boy, she took a beating,” Hodges said, just weeks shy of his 101st birthday. “I just hated to see my ship torn up like that.”All three aircraft carriers were found previously, the Yorktown in 1998 and the Japanese ships four years ago. The Akagi was only preliminarily identified, however, and limited images were recorded of the other two.That changed when Ocean Exploration Trust — founded by Bob Ballard, who led teams that discovered the Yorktown and the Titanic — conducted extensive video surveys of the three ships during a month-long exploration of the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, about 1,300 miles northwest of Honolulu.“We were able to spend over basically three full days on these sites, including two full days on the seafloor, really methodically and thoroughly documenting the entire wrecks,” Daniel Wagner, the chief scientist for Ocean Exploration Trust, told The Associated Press via videoconference from the exploration vessel Nautilus.The surveys were streamed online, allowing more than 100 scientists, historians and other experts from across the world to participate in a live forum alongside about two dozen scientists aboard the Nautilus.The Battle of Midway took place six months after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor onAug. 08, 2025 - Idi Amin using the fild-marshallis Sword, the
Go on between Japan and the Allies for the rest of World War II in the Pacific. Today we will see the Japanese conquest of Burma (modern Myanmar), from December 1941 to May 1942. The conquest did not take five months because of Allied resistance, as was the case in the Philippines, but because of the rugged terrain and the size of the territory that was to be occupied.I was hoping that I wouldn't need a map for the next episode, but so many place names are mentioned that it now looks necessary. This one shows the Japanese advance (red) in Burma/Myanmar in April 1942, and the escape routes used by the Allies to evacuate the British colony (blue).

Saw it, his choked words say all there is to say.The Battle for Midway has the usual problem with the historical footage: for many aspects of the telling, accurate film clips simply do not exist. There’s a lot here that is accurate, but at times substitutions are made, so that at one point a bit on USS Hornet shows an Independence class light carrier as a stand-in, and when the story gets to Yorktown’s disabling and abandonment, footage of Hornet being abandoned during the Battle of Santa Cruz, later in 1942, is used. This is something that simply can’t be gotten around without huge investments in 3D modeling, though, and it isn’t a huge distraction.The Battle for Midway is an excellent addition to any Yorktown aficionado’s collection. Well produced and an easy watch, the footage of Old Yorky sitting on the bottom is more than enough to justify the purchase..

El-Alamein, coastal town in northwestern Egypt, about 60 miles (100 km) west of Alexandria, that was the site of two major battles between British and Axis forces in 1942 during World War II. El-Alamein is the seaward (northern) end of a 40-mile-wide bottleneck that is flanked on the south by the impassable Qattara Depression. This crucial east-west corridor became a vital defensive line held by the British army and marked the farthest point of penetration into Egypt by German forces, who were intent upon capturing the Suez Canal.After the British had inflicted severe defeats on the Italian forces in North Africa, the German general Erwin Rommel was chosen commander of Axis forces in Libya (February 1941). In January 1942 his forces started a new drive eastward along the North African coast to seize the Suez Canal. After losing Banghāzī in January, the British held the Germans in check until May. Then the German and Italian forces were able to destroy most of the British tank force, take Tobruk, and move eastward into Egypt, reaching the British defenses at El-Alamein (Al-ʿAlamayn) on June 30, 1942. Rommel attacked this line on July 1, but the next day the British commander, Gen. Claude Auchinleck, counterattacked, and a battle of attrition developed. By mid-July Rommel was still at El-Alamein, blocked, and had even been thrown on the defensive, thus ending the first engagement. The British had stopped his drive to overrun Egypt and seize the canal.Both sides built up their forces in the ensuing pause, but the British, with more secure supply lines across the Mediterranean, were able to reinforce their army to much greater effect. Equally importantly, Gen. Harold Alexander took command of the British troops in this theatre in August, and Gen. Bernard L. Montgomery was named his field commander. On OctoberComments
