jun 7, 1942 - Battle of Midway
Description:
the turning point of the Pacific War,
US uses its aircraft carriers to deal a huge blow to Jap,
from this point on Jap is on the defensive,
it is not able to replace its losses,
it starts losing more and more Pacific islands
out of desperation Jap turns to Kamikaze strikes (esp. after 1944),
Jap soldiers are ferociously determined though,
to them its nearly always death before surrender (Bushido code)
