    Song: Midway
    Author: Sabaton
    Movies: Midway (2019), Midway (1976), Eternal Zero (2013), Pearl Harbor (2001)
    Lyrics for "Midway"
    Send them over the waves our sentinels
    They report in the news
    Position of our foes
    This battlefield's been chosen tactically in advance
    Time to alert our fighters
    We're soon in range
    Midway
    We'll meet at midway, Naval war
    Calling all men to deck, got to be airborne
    Head out into the sun
    Descending on our foes
    This is a crucial moment in the heat of the war
    To fly and hit our targets
    Down in the waves
    Midway (Display their mind, ordering carriers, admirals at war)
    We'll meet at midway (To win the fight, tactics are crucial) Naval war
    Far from shore, a Pacific war
    Bombs are falling from the skies
    It's a bomb-run day, it's the naval way
    A blood-red sun is on the rise
    Far from shore, a Pacific war
    Bombs are falling from the skies
    It's a bomb-run day, it's the naval way
    A blood-red sun is on the rise
    Midway (Display their mind, ordering carriers, admirals at war)
    We'll meet at midway (To win the fight, tactics are crucial) Naval war
    Midway (Display their mind, ordering carriers, admirals at war)
    We'll meet at midway (To win the fight, tactics are crucial) Naval war
    Midway

    "Though he conceived and directed the raid on Pearl Harbor, Yamamoto had misgivings about a war with the United States, whose strength he knew well from his studies at Harvard and two stints as a naval attaché in Washington. “I shall run wild for the first six months or a year,” he remarked after Pearl Harbor, “but I have utterly no confidence for the second and third years of the fighting.”

      @@GetDougDimmadomed Yes and no, the Japanese command pretty much all agreed at the time that starting a war with the US was the "best" worst option. Something that people forget is that the US was seen as unwilling to fight despite it's industrial capacity that allowed it to basically print out material after 1942. This view when combined with the only other option really being to give up their war in China (which was a big no no), resulted in the Japanese commanders agreeing that in order for them to continue in China, they would have to attack the US and hope for a quick war. This is part of why the Midway plan was done, in hopes of knocking the US out of the war quickly after the US had proved at the Coral Sea that Pearl Harbor didn't make them roll over like the Japanese had hoped. Even the carriers not being in harbor at the time didn't really bother them as much as people say until later in the war since no one knew just how deciding in naval warfare carriers would become in 1941.

    One fascinating point worth mentioning- this battle could have gone another direction were it not for another battle one month prior.
    Compared to the Battle of Midway, the Battle of the Coral Sea had little strategic impact (apart from forcing the Japanese to cancel the invasion of Port Moresby)
    But at Coral Sea, the Japanese Naval Air Arm was dealt a meaningful blow- the light carrier Shoho was sunk, the fleet carrier Shokaku was damaged and the fleet carrier Zuikaku lost most of her air crew.
    In other words, because of what happened at Coral Sea, the odds were evened; the Japanese had 2 less fleet carriers to attack Midway. Meaning Japan could only send 4 carriers against the US, who by this point had Yorktown, Hornet and Enterprise (with Midway Island arguably acting as a “4th carrier” in the battle)
    Had Shokaku and Zuikaku been at Midway... who knows what would have happened

    • @magnum6763

      The US actually had the Saratoga going under repairs, she wouldn't serve in the pacific for long, but she was there and a present threat and the Japanese had no idea where it was. The Coral Sea had stopped the Japanese from sending 5 carriers, adding Shokaku due to damage. The fear of Shokaku was enough that Hornets planes (all but torpedo bombers) went on the "Flight To Nowhere" causing the fighters to ditch and the dive bombers to do jack

      Without the Battle of Coral Sea, the US would also have 4 maybe 5 carriers. Without Yorktown taking the damage she did at that battle, and knowing there would be 6 carriers to face off against, I'd say Nimitz would give the same order to rush repairs on a carrier, only it would be Saratoga and knowing when they planned to attack Midway? He may have even drawn Wasp over to make it 6 on 6. What an insane battle that would have been....

      If they were at Pearl Harbor after the Coral Sea battle,they would've had the Japanese beat by one Aircraft Carrier(with Midway acting as the 6th carrier).
      Also,our first escort carrier(USS LONG ISLAND)should've been there,within visual range of Midway to provide extra air support.

      I mean, most of this footage is from a movie called "Midway" that came out in 2019, detailing the first half of the war. And it does it with near perfect historical accuracy. Though the acting isn't too good and hollywood exaggerated a few scenes. Visuals are amazing though.

      Yeah... The worse is that the European frontline is the most talked like, " oh... The battles were very bloody... Bla Bla Bla..." They were bloody indeed, but at the end of WW2, the US had more Pacific veterans with PTSD than the veterans of Europe frontline... That's a fact, because the Germans were the kind that they surrender... But the Japanese... I would say at least 90% of them, they didn't surrender at all... I recommend to watch the mini series of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg about the Marines fighting in the Pacific.

  • @frankydman
    @frankydman 3 роки тому +126

    One point I find that this battle highlighted- the sheer difference in quality of Damage Control for both sides.
    Case and point- Akagi takes only one bomb and is a total loss. Yorktown, however, takes 3 bombs, gets repaired, then takes 2 aerial torpedoes... and she still survives.
    Had I-168 not attacked after the battle, chances are Yorktown could’ve limped to a port to be repaired; again, the difference in damage control was truly staggering

    Funny how times can change. Could you imagine telling an American marine 80 years ago that in the 21st Century, we'd be allies with the Japanese and would be counting on them to help us in a potential conflict with China (who was our ally in 1942?)
    But then again, could you imagine trying to tell two soldiers, one from the North, one from the South, in 1863 that in 80 years they'd be standing side-by-side as brothers fighting off Imperial Japan?

If the axis won you wouldn't have the freedom to shit talk since the Japanese were strict and didn't tolerate disrespect and saying anything wrong about the emperor was borderline treason. On the other hand Nazi Germany had a view of what the perfect race was, and if you didn't fit that bill well....it's heavy to even talk about.

    O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
    What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming,
    Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
    O'er the ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly streaming?
    And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air,
    Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
    O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
    O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
    On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep
    Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
    What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
    As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
    Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
    In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,
    'Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave
    O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
    And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
    That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
    A home and a Country should leave us no more?
    Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution.
    No refuge could save the hireling and slave
    From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
    And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
    O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
    O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
    Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation!
    Blest with vict'ry and peace may the heav'n rescued land
    Praise the power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
    Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
    And this be our motto - "In God is our trust,"
    And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
    O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
