Synopsis
In mid-1942, Japan's military leadership planned to destroy the US Pacific fleet before American industrial power made Japan's war unwinnable. Operation MI would see the capture of the Hawaiian atoll of Midway and the destruction of America's carriers, while Operation AL would crush the US outposts in the western Aleutians. Once captured, the latter's Kiska and Attu islands would host aircraft from the Imperial Japanese Navy's Eleventh Air Fleet. The Japanese occupation of the Aleutians proved to be the only conquest of American home soil during World War II. This superbly illustrated volume documents how an 11 -month, long-range air-sea war of attrition was played out between the USA, Canada, and Japan along the length of the grim Aleutian archipelago, in the customary wretched weather of the North Pacific - a "Forgotten War" to control an inhospitable landscape of icy mountains and thick bogs. Book jacket., Aleutians 1942-43 is the full story of the forgotten battle to liberate American soil from the Japanese during World War II. It is often forgotten that during World War II, the Japanese managed to successfully invade and conquer a precious part of American home soil--the first time this had happened since 1815. Capturing the Aleutian Islands, located in Alaska territory, was seen by the Japanese as vital in order to shore up their northern defensive perimeter. Fighting in the Aleutians was uniquely brutal. It is a barren, rugged archipelago of icy mountains and thick bogs, with a climate of constant snow, freezing rains, and windstorms. These geographic conditions tended to neutralize traditional American strengths such as air power, radar, naval bombardment, and logistics. The campaign to recapture the islands required extensive combined-ops planning, and inflicted on the United States its second highest casualty rate in the Pacific Theater. Featuring the largest Japanese banzai charge of the war, first use of pre-battle battleship bombardment in the Pacific, and the battle at the Komandorski Islands, this is the story of America's forgotten war., A highly illustrated study of the Japanese conquest and American reconquest of the Aleutian Islands off the coast of Alaska, one of the most inhospitable theaters of World War II.

    Great seller. Super fast shipping - 2 days from their location to Calgary. Items are in even better condition than described. Seller included a free vintage magazine - thank you. Excellent to do business with and I will be returning. Packaging was solid - items were better than described (e.g. Paths of Glory was noted as slightly damaged but looked new with an open box.). Seller is exceedingly honest in description. Best grognard seller I've dealt with and I'll be back.
